We consider a queueing system with N servers and two types of customers: Simple customers which require a service from one of the N servers and Locking customers which have to be served simultaneously by all N servers. Loynes' increasing schema is generalized to this type of queueing system. Various properties such as the stability condition and the uniqueness of the stationary regime are then derived.
