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)

.
