I've discovered how to set retention dates by setting a default period on a volume level, and there's also a description on how to do it thru UNIX shell - but the CIFS protocol is not covered. It simply says "Set the retention date using the command or program available for the file access protocol"...</P><P></P><P>Does anyone have experince in working with SnapLock'd volumes or setting retention period for individual files?</P><P></P><P>Thanx in advance,</P><P>Igor</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 05 Jun 2025 07:23:56 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/Network-and-Storage-Protocols/WORM-retention-period/m-p/40003#M3694 igor 2025-06-05T07:23:56Z Re: WORM retention period https://community.netapp.com/t5/Network-and-Storage-Protocols/WORM-retention-period/m-p/40009#M3697 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P><SPAN style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Hello,</SPAN></P><P><SPAN style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><BR /></SPAN></P><P><SPAN style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><BR /></SPAN></P><P><SPAN style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">you have to set the ACCESS-Time of the File to a Date in the Future which is greater/equal as far as the "snaplock_minimum_period".

I've set a 2 day retention period for several files using Cygwin, Touch and WinTouch. So by now, the retention date had well and truly passed but I still can't modify or delete them.</P><P></P><P>I've tried changing it's Read-Only status but I'm getting "Access is denied", also, when trying to delete one of the files I'm getting "Please remove write protection".</P><P></P><P>Any thoughts?</P><P></P><P>P.S. Also, none of the touch utilities can extend the retention period, once the file has been set in Read-Only mode. According to NOW manuals, they should be able to do it.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 21 Sep 2009 07:57:34 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/Network-and-Storage-Protocols/WORM-retention-period/m-p/40030#M3706 igor 2009-09-21T07:57:34Z Re: WORM retention period https://community.netapp.com/t5/Network-and-Storage-Protocols/WORM-retention-period/m-p/40035#M3707 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I'm still having retention date issues.
