Locking Projects Before You Import an Archive

For non-Workspace enabled objects, you need to lock the project before importing an archive file. The Import wizard informs you of any unlocked projects that you must lock. It does this after it analyzes the objects in the archive and compares them to the objects that reside in the repository. For Workspace-enabled objects, object locking is done at the database level. Therefore, there is no need to lock any project or object for importing.
