merge replication. The maintenance plan started to fail a couple of
months ago and the database would not get backed up. After clearing
all the locks, I am able to backup the database manually. The locks
return again and I'm not able to backup the database with the
maintenance plan. How can I get around the lock issue or solve it so
that I can backup the database again?
Thanks,

How are you trying to back it up? I've never seen locks prevent a db
backup.
