Locking started tasks

Administrators can enable task locking to prevent the Gantt scheduler from modifying planned start and end dates for tasks that have already started by setting the GANTT_LOCK_STARTED_TASKS property.

By default, the as-shipped IBM® Maximo® Real Estate and Facilities applications, when correcting dependencies and constraints, do not prevent or "lock" the Gantt scheduler from changing the Planned Start or Planned End date of a task that has already started. But your application administrator can enable the "locking" of started tasks, so that only tasks that have not yet started will be corrected, by setting GANTT_LOCK_STARTED_TASKS=TRUE in the TRIRIGAWEB.properties file on the Maximo Real Estate and Facilities server. This setting is system-wide, so it must be consistent across all servers.
