Have a "legacy" VFP6 application that has been running fine on Server 2008
machine.   We have recently moved the application to a VMware 2012
server.   Beyond some initial issues with data file sizes and some slower
responses.  (corrected by reducing the size of some of the most used files)
it has been fine.

However,  here lately (past few weeks)  I have been running into some
issues with:

1.)   Error Reading file when attempting to use a dbf.  Very,  very
intermittent and to only some users.  (like one or two)
2.)    Possible record locking issues.  In some parts of the application
there are manual locks and unlocks on records,  otherwise I let VFP do all
the work.  We have some problems with "record is in use by another" in the
past (even on the 2008 server),  but these seem to be growing.
3.)     Get this, "....has attempted to write to a file that is marked READ
ONLY..."  Had this happen a few weeks ago.  Sure enough I couldn't write to
it,  so I recreated it.  All was good until today when someone got the same
message,  but in this case the file is fine...

Did some searching and found references to GPF errors being created by VFP6
in a VMware environment,  we do not seem to be experiencing those.
(thankfully)

Has anyone seen this in a VMware environment before?  If so were you able
to correct.  Am I overreacting?

This has me baffled... (among other things)

Thank You,
Desmond
