Options
This command takes the universal options available to all si commands, as well as some general options. See the options reference page for descriptions.
--action=[downgrade|remove]
controls whether you want to remove or downgrade the lock on the member.
--action=downgrade means downgrade an exclusive lock to a non-exclusive lock.
--action=remove
means remove the lock on the member.
--locker=name
specifies the name of another user whose lock you want to remove or downgrade. If this option is not specified, the command removes or downgrades your lock.
--[no|confirm]breakLock
