Dell FluidFS NAS Solutions Administrator's Guide

Description

CIFS file sharing conflict.

Cause

When a file is opened using the CIFS protocol, the opening application communicates the sharing mode that must be used while this file is open.

This sharing mode describes what other users activities are allowed on this file, while it is open.

This definition is sent by the application and the user cannot control/configure it.

After there is a violation of the sharing definition, the user receives an access denied error and this event is issued.

Workaround

This is an informative event; The administrator may contact the locking user and request to close the application referencing this file.

The application which opened the file may not have shut down gracefully. It is recommended to reboot the client if possible.
