InitLockrestricts access for other UA Applications.

A call of this Methodfor an element that is already locked will be rejected.

While locked, requests from other Applicationsto modify the locked element (e.g., writing to Variables, or invoking Methods) should be rejected with Bad_Locked. However, requests to read or navigate will typically work. Serversmay choose to implement an exclusive locking where other Applicationshave no access at all.

The lock is removed when ExitLockis called. It is automatically removed when the MaxInactiveLockTimeelapsed (see 7.4).
