Vince, Thanks for explaining the use case. I'm surprised to hear that moderate load is enough to make the lock table inaccessible, and it makes me question whether they have Oracle properly configured and on adequately sized hardware, but that's a separate question, for them to resolve if they choose.
I'm not familiar enough with the configuration options for the database locker to know whether it's possible to support locking in a separate database, but I'll try to find time to look at it later this week or over the weekend. In the meantime, can you clarify whether your client is using the database locker or the lease database locker[1]? If they're using the former, it might be worth checking whether the latter eliminates the issues they're seeing, in cade the root cause relates to database connections being terminated (causing the brokers to initiate a failover).
