Releasing locks held for a file z/OS Network File System Guide and Reference SC23-6883-00 |
|
To release all locks for a file, z/OS operators can issue a release command that releases locks for z/OS UNIX
files and MVS data sets or members. The command also forces the NFS
server to release the file, and if the file is active, to close and
deallocate it. For more information, see Release operand.
Note: The NLM protocol does not provide any means for NFS server
to notify the NFS client that the locks were released. Thus, the client
may proceed under the false assumption that it still has the locks.
Therefore, the release command should only be used in extreme circumstances.
