About the PUT Command
The PUT command is used to create or replace Stored Procedures.
If you are replaceing an existing procedure, you must LOCK the procedure first either with the GET LOCK or the SET PROCEDURE command. Once the procedure is locked, it is replaced by an updated file using the PUT command. A procedure cannot be replaced unless it is locked. A procedure is automatically unlocked when replaced with the PUT command.
