This command should never have been allowed. As another response said, this clears all locks (record, file, group, etc) for all users. It is highly likely to result in data integrity problems as processes find themselves updating the same record simultaneously and, far worse, releasing group locks can cause file corruption. Whenever I come across a user who has had a backward link error, my first question is "do you use UNLOCK ALL". If they say yes, they are on their own! Always use the opions of UNLOCK to identify the exact lock you want to clear. Even then, you need to think about the application level impact of releasing a lock.
