Advanced server 7.3A file locking problem

Hello,
The application on a PC uses a file share on a vax with pathworks 5.5-2 and works well. When we use a share on alpha 7.3/advanced server 7.3a eco4 the files stays locked.
Do you have any idea/ parameter configuration againt lock behavior on advanced server ?
Thank's in advance.

It might be the Opportunistic Locking issue.

In PWRK$COMMON:PWRK.INI add the two lines:

[PLM]
ENABLE_OPLOCKING = 0

and restart advanced server.

How long does the file stay locked?

Using ADMIN/CONFIG you can control the open file caching and the time, a file stays open in case another client requests it.

Problem solved with the enable_oplocking=0
