Section 3 - Configuration
Opportunistic locks (oplocks) are a characteristic of the LAN Manager networking protocol implemented in the 32-Bit
Windows family. Oplocks are guarantees made by a server for a shared logical volume to its clients. These guarantees
inform the Client that a file’s content will not be allowed to be changed by the server, or if some change is imminent,
the client will be notified before the change is allowed to proceed.
Oplocks are designed to increase network performance when it comes to network file sharing however when using
file-based database applications it is recommended to set the share oplocks to
No (off)
.
By default, Windows Vista
®
has Oplocks enabled and cannot be disabled. If you are having network performance issues
with applications sharing files from the DIR-685 you may try to improve performance by setting Oplocks to
No (off)
.
When enabled, the file attribute ”Archive” will be set for files stored on the DIR-685. Certain backup software set this
attribute for files that are being stored as backups.
