locked ODS

Is there a file property which forbids some files from getting their ODS updated?
Most other files I can set the appropriate notes.ini parameter and compact the file with the copy style option and it updates the ODS. Some files I have to drop the server because they are always locked and run the offline compact. Other files I have yet to find a successful way to update the ODS.
Daoscat.nsf is one. I opened a ticket with HCL. They did their minimal amount of work and then suggested that I: drop the server, delete it, let it rebuild upon server startup and resync daos.
Others include some really old databases in the HELP directory: lccon.nsf, decsdoc.nsf, lsxlc.nsf. These are all R5 (41:0) ODS
