Deleting folders problem

[Maras]

Hi,

Netapp 9.11, CIFS and shared folder. Clients W10 from time to time unable to delete folders inside share. They can delete files inside but not folders.  It looks like W10 client sees folders as locked. We can delete (or change name) from another machine as a administrator. After random time W10 clients can do it too. ProcessManager sees these folders during deleting as attached screenshot. Any idea what's going on?

Sharing violation in the attached snippet means the file was opened by someone else and a lock prevented the requested operation from occurring

To check which client is locking it, utilize the vserver locks show command. Once the lock is revoked  by the client, the desired operations will be permitted.

Note : ONTAP does not have a feature to lock a file and it is actually the application hosted on the client which can lock a file. hence, It is the applications/clients responsibility to revoke the lock.
