 Can you control suspend / unsuspend writes from the OS (Unix)?

We have a backup script that suspends and restores writes by going into Universe and setting the SYSTEM()  variable 27/43.  We had a problem when after the script suspended writes the unsuspend failed because user license limits were briefly reached.  What is the best way to recover beyond adding more licenses?

I would recommend using the "uv -admin" command. The following options allow for suspending, un-suspending, and reporting the status.

-L{ock} Suspend file I/O.
-R{eport} Current suspension status.
-U{nlock} Unsuspend file I/O.

Does the uv -admin command use a license?

uv -admin does not consume a license
