Re: [Samba] oplocks issue when trying to copy file
I've narrowed this problem down to a patch that is applied in 2.6.36.3. I replaced file.c from 2.6.36.2 into 2.6.36.3 and Samba works fine. The problem is I'm not sure if Samba needs to be fixed or the kernel needs to be. Anyone know what the right action is? One thing I noticed was the invalid argument being sent in the debugging log. linux_set_kernel_oplock: Refused oplock on file home/foo/open/test.cfg, fd = 33, file_id = 17:aa41ab:0. (Invalid argument) Any advice would help.

Please find below the problem description When trying to copy a file to a samba share which has NFS backend on 2.6.36.3 or newer Linux kernel following message is displayed on windows client An unexpected error is keeping you from copying the file. If you continue to receive this error, you can use the error code to search for help with this problem. Error 0x80070021: The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file I am able to delete a file within the same directory structure. I am also able to create a file or folder by right-clicking within Windows Explorer on XP. Below are the logs generated by samba in debug mode.

[Samba] oplocks failed if user is not the owner of the file?
Maybe, my last question was to short, but I would like to clear this: Some users are faster than other users, I think because of caching the files on the client. I have some identical windows 7 clients. All connected to Samba 3.5.6-4.1-2450-SUSE-SL11.2-x86_64 Samba is acting as a domain-master.

[Samba] Oplocks
Hello, I'm using the Samba server 3.0.33 that exports volume from a GPFS. The GPFS strongly dislikes unlinking files that are locked (resulting in permission denied) using fcntl F_SETLEASE. It seems that the Samba *sometimes* tries to unlink a file that is oplocked. Why? Is this a bug? Why it does not happen always but only sometimes? I have strace logs showing: Wrong case: 8711 14:57:50.765677 open(Y_odloz/D8/D8_03_Ivet_98/06aa6459-a011-40f8-bfb1-25d15e7ada61, O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0744) = 121 8711 14:57:50.766030 fstat(121, {st_dev=makedev(0, 23), st_ino=3079419, st_mode=S_IFREG|0744, st_nlink=1, st_uid=40022, st_gid=400, st_blksize=262144, st_blocks=0, st_size=0, st_atime=2010/07/13-14:57:50, st_mtime=2010/07/13-14:57:50, st_ctime=2010/07/13-14:57:50}) = 0 8711 14:57:50.766129 fcntl(12, F_SETLKW, {type=F_WRLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=8260, len=1}) = 0 8711 14:57:50.766214 fcntl(121, F_SETSIG, 0x23) = 0 8711 14:57:50.766275 fcntl(121, F_SETLEASE, 0x1) = 0 [...] 8711 14:57:50.789570 stat(Y_odloz/D8/D8_03_Ivet_98/06aa6459-a011-40f8-bfb1-25d15e7ada61, {st_dev=makedev(0, 23), st_ino=3079419, st_mode=S_IFREG|0744, st_nlink=1, st_uid=40022, st_gid=400, st_blksize=262144, st_blocks=0, st_size=0, st_atime=2010/07/13-14:57:50, st_mtime=2010/07/13-14:57:50, st_ctime=2010/07/13-14:57:50}) = 0 8711 14:57:50.789685 unlink(Y_odloz/D8/D8_03_Ivet_98/06aa6459-a011-40f8-bfb1-25d15e7ada61) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) [...] 8711 14:58:20.785599 fcntl(121, F_SETSIG, 0x23) = 0 8711 14:58:20.785660 fcntl(121, F_SETLEASE, 0x2) = 0 8711 14:58:20.785736 close(121)= 0 Correct case: 8711 15:02:01.279971 open(Y_odloz/D8/D8_03_Ivet_98/0720d2bf-8619-4ecb-a2eb-d2b806941539, O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0744) = 166 8711 15:02:01.333073 fstat(166, {st_dev=makedev(0, 23), st_ino=3164278, st_mode=S_IFREG|0744, st_nlink=1, st_uid=40022, st_gid=400, st_blksize=262144, st_blocks=0, st_size=0, st_atime=2010/07/13-15:02:01, st_mtime=2010/07/13-15:02:01, st_ctime=2010/07/13-15:02:01}) = 0 8711 15:02:01.333221 fcntl(12, F_SETLKW, {type=F_WRLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=24956, len=1}) = 0 8711 15:02:01.09 fcntl(166, F_SETSIG, 0x23) = 0 8711 15:02:01.71 fcntl(166, F_SETLEASE, 0x1) = 0 [...] 8711 15:02:01.424660 fcntl(166, F_SETSIG, 0x23) = 0 8711 15:02:01.424734 fcntl(166, F_SETLEASE, 0x2) = 0 [...] 8711 15:02:01.513181 stat(Y_odloz/D8/D8_03_Ivet_98/0720d2bf-8619-4ecb-a2eb-d2b806941539, {st_dev=makedev(0, 23), st_ino=3164278, st_mode=S_IFREG|0744, st_nlink=1, st_uid=40022, st_gid=400, st_blksize=262144, st_blocks=0, st_size=0, st_atime=2010/07/13-15:02:01, st_mtime=2010/07/13-15:02:01, st_ctime=2010/07/13-15:02:01}) = 0 8711 15:02:01.513393 unlink(Y_odloz/D8/D8_03_Ivet_98/0720d2bf-8619-4ecb-a2eb-d2b806941539) = 0 [...] 8711 15:02:01.514906 fcntl(12, F_SETLKW, {type=F_UNLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=24956, len=1}) = 0 8711 15:02:01.515005 close(166)= 0 -- Lukáš Hejtmánek -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

I can remember having to vastly increase the record-locking features of Netware 4, if you had users using Access dbs, especially multi-user. That was back around 2000 or so, so record-locking issues with Access dbs have been around for a really long time ... -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] Oplocks - when do they help
Hi, I googled around and the general wisdom seems to be that oplocks provide a performance gain if files are accessed by a single client at a time (that is, if the oplock does not break). What I can't figure out is what test can show this performance gain. I mean, theoretically, document-editing applications (Word,excel) save and load whole files and hence do not benefit from oplocks. Applications which do modify portions of a file usually flush buffers to maintain transactional integrity and hence should not benefit from oplocks either. So, how can I demonstrate the benefit of oplocks?

Not necessarily. I do know that MS Access suffers a lot without oplocks, I have seen a factor of 10 between an oplocked file and one without oplocks. This happened both against Windows and also against Samba. Everything else very much depends on the application. Without oplocks the Windows redirector (the compontent that makes d: come from the net) passes the Win32 API calls directly to the wire. So if the application decides to read a gigabyte large file byte by byte, then it will severely suffer from missing oplocks.

Volker What I'm really after is whether I should worry about oplocks in a Samba server or just turn them off. The reason for worrying is that I have the same file accessed using 2 shares: one normal and one that sits upon a special file system (linux fuse-based) that's really a layer above the normal file system. I cannot say what types of applications access these shares - they are for general use. What I understand is that I should make oplocks work if possible (I understand that for starters, that dev/inode pair through both access points should be the same). Thanks for the quick reply!

Re: RESOLVED: (sorta) Re: [Samba] Oplocks question
Clearly some one who hasn't worked with Samba for that long. Theres no shame about Samba, it does what it does well, PDC and SMB sharing and has saved my a#% several times. I never chimed in as I didn't and still don't follow the thread. You can stack as many disk protocol sharing services as you want on a single box, but if you want to re export from one to another, sounds to me like you are very junior in the network fs space. As for MSDFS, man that sh$# sux. If you require clustering of that nature, start doing an RFQ from NetApp or BlueArc, etc... even look on eBay and actual auctions.

[Samba] oplocks causing more trouble than benefit ?
Hi everybody, my setup is 1 fileserver running samba 3.0.22 on Gentoo Linux, and about 15 clients, some of which are XP and some W2K. On some PCs we have Outlook 2000, and we store each user's outlook.pst file in a private folder on the fileserver. One of the W2K clients had hardware problems that caused it to freeze once in a while. Everytime this happened, the user would restart the machine and everything was fine except Outlook complained it could not open the personal folders file because it was already in use by another user (or process, I don't remember the error message exactly). smbstatus showed in fact that the smbd process the user was connected to _before_ her PC freezed was still holding a DENY_WRITE lock on the outlook.pst file. One solution was to manually kill that smbd process. While this worked almost every time (although it was really annoying because that PC's hardware failures were becoming frequent), one day I had to restart smbd entirely (or was it the entire server ?). To make a long story short, I searched the docs and finally found that the problem was I had oplocks enabled in the smb.conf file. Disabling it solved the issue entirely. The conf file now reads something like: [NetworkDrive] (snip other options) oplocks = no While trying to solve this issue I've read quite some docs about the oplocks feature, and I got the impression that while they may improve performance, they are very complicated and rely on a not so robust mechanism. I didn't notice any slowdown after disabling oplocks, but this might be because our network and fileserver are underloaded. So my question is: why are oplocks on by default ? Wouldn't it be safer to turn them off by default and specify under which circumstances they might give the performance improvements that justify their adoption ?

RE: [Samba] Oplocks not taking place at all unless fake oplocks = yes - Update
I've modified the contention limit in attempt to troubleshoot this, thinking that perhaps the client may be requesting multiple oplocks for whatever reason. The client is still not getting an oplock without specifying 'fake oplocks = yes'. I'm open to any ideas for troubleshooting. I've also checked to see if oplocks are explicitly disabled on the client, and they are not. I do experience this with more than one client as well, a Windows 2000 Professional client, and a Windows XP Professional client (inside a VMWare session).

[Samba] oplocks and Excel
I have a small business client with a new samba file server. It's CentOS 4.2 and Samba samba-3.0.10-1.4E.2. When they save open Excel files from Windows, they are prompted to overwrite the existing file. I mean, when they click the little disk icon or use Ctrl-S or File--Save. Excel would normally just write over the file, not check with an are you sure? prompt. But that's what they get. So I looked into this a little, and although I can't find anyone with this specific issue, I do see that newer versions of Excel create a bit of file-locking trouble for samba. Now, I don't know enough to know whether my problem has anything to do with file-locking, but it seems likely enough. So I have two questions: 1) I find very conflicting opinions on this list, and across the net, about whether to leave oplocks and level2 oplocks on. I have never had to touch them in the past, but most of the places where I've used samba have old versions of Excel and/or OOo. If this place does not use much MS-Access, can I turn off oplocks? Might I expect doing so to help with this prompt-to-overwrite problem? 2) More generally, has anyone else seen this problem before and been able to do anything about it?

[Samba] oplocks, QuickBooks (Samba 3)
Hi there, Can somebody please explain to me why Samba 3 requires 'oplocks = no' on shares for programs like Quickbooks to operate properly with multiple users, where Samba 2 didn't? Without this option, Quickbooks will complain about file corruption when a second user tries to open a file. This option, however, makes the particular share that the option is present in _very_ slow accessing from Windows clients. Currently, Quickbooks is getting its own share as a workaround (previously, some setups may have had Quickbooks in a subfolder of another share). I'm finding it _very_ difficult to convince some people to upgrade (from Samba 2 on Debian Woody, to Samba 3 on Ubuntu Hoary) when to them, it seems a step backwards - It works fine shared from Windows. Is there perhaps another way around this problem, or something fixed in a later version of Samba that is present in Ubuntu Hoary (3.0.10-1ubuntu3)?

[Samba] Oplocks with concurrent access from same client
I am observing the following behaviour with samba-2.2.12 (Yes, I know, it's old) and MS-Access XP on a Win2K box: The client opens a .mdb file and gets a level2 oplock. Then it opens the .mdb file again and loses the oplock (at least I assume it does: The server sends an SMBlockingX request to the client and waits for another SMBlockingX request from the client before sending the Reply to the SMBntcreateX request). Then the client closes the second file handle to the .mdb file and continues to use the first one, which has now lost the oplock, so there is a lot of network traffic and the query is rather slow. My question is, is this the expected behaviour from the server? Could the server, if a file is opened a second time from the same client, assume that it is the client's responsibility to keep data in its cache of the file consistent, and keep the oplock (and maybe even grant it on the second filehandle, too)? Or to ask the same question from a different viewpoint: On the client system, who is managing oplocks and caching? The application or the OS? If it's the application, the server can clearly not assume that two different filehandles will maintain a consistent state of the file (they may belong to different processes). If it's the OS, it would at least be technically feasible to maintain a common cache on the client side for all file handles, and if Windows does this, it would be possible for the server to take advantage of this. Finally, if the server can make this optimization, does a newer version of Samba (3.x or 4.x) do it? hp -- _ | Peter J.

I did my best to convince the workers, they did something wrong, but they don't believe me, can You imagine?). Now there are the following results possible (ordered by occurence): 1. Can open, but it takes a long time, can change, but cannot save, not even with a new name in the same folder or anywhere on the share, 2. Cannot open at all, Excel freezes (Maybe the same than 1, but it takes more time I can spare waiting for 3.

[Samba] Re: samba oplocks ...
What exactly are you trying to configure locking for? Are you running a network where the same files may be accessed at the same time? Samba should have at least regular and level2 oplocks on be default. I don't believe kernel oplocks are on be default but they aren't needed unless you're sharing a file that the linux system also writes to. Keep in mind that for multi-user database stuff you do not want oplocks in use with your database files. I use the veto oplock files option to deal with that. All this and more can be found by typing 'man smb.conf' at the command line. victor mejia vazquez [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I've tried to configure samba to lock files bewteen windows and linux but i couldn't i've read a lot of messages here, but trere is no one that have something about the file smb.conf. i have this in my global secction but i doesn't work [global] workgroup = GMC create mask = 0777 os level = 16 directory mask = 0777 hosts allow = 192.168.0., 127. share modes = no max log size = 1000 lock directory = /tmp/samba/lock level2 oplocks = yes strict locking = yes kernel oplocks = Yes blocking locks = Yes fake oplocks = No oplocks = Yes level2 oplocks = Yes can anybody give me suggestions, maybe someone has te same problem.. thank you - Estas vacaciones... no viajes sól@: http://www.muchagente.com Ya.com ADSL Router Wi-Fi: Sólo 29,90 ?/mes + IVA*.

[Samba] Oplocks -- Simultaneously writing to same file
On my small network, I allow users on 6 Windows machines to read and write the same Linux Share. Can anyone tell me whether the smb.conf file listed below will get me into trouble with users opening -- and possibly writing -- the SAME FILE simultaneously? I have read the documentation on oplocks and I'm not sure I understand it sufficiently. I need a simple plain English explanation of how to use it (and whether I need to use it). What are the different settings and what effect do they have? Most of my files are primarily being read (they are video files for a networked video editing system). However, there is a database file -- more or less, and index of all the videofiles that is frequently changing -- that all Windows clients must be able to read and overwrite. Until this week, I was using Windows 2000 Server to provide access to all my video files -- as well as the database file. Over the course of a year, I never had any problems or conflicts with two machines trying to write the same database file at the same time. I want to be sure I continue without problems now that I have switched to Linux as my server. Is the default behavior of Samba on Linux the same as Windows 2000 with regards to simultaneously opening and possibly writing one file?

In Samba you can turn them off per share or file or globally in the smb.conf. In Windows you can only turn them off globally in the registry.

[Samba] Oplocks...again...
I would like to know if like the [homes] section mapped to a single user at login time (H: drive) would have any of the problems discussed in previous emails. Specifically the oplock break issue. Since one and only one user can have this space mapped in our implementation (because of credential conflicts that windows does not allow), how could a user have a detrimental experience with oplocks? Since only that user can open the files whether .xls, .mdb or .doc (don't mean to pick on M$-Office) there should be no issue, right? I ask primarily because I've had oplocks off for some time now, but am always wondering about performance increases - I'll take them where I can get them. My other question is regarding a read-only share. We serve *lots* of software from what we call our M: drive. How will oplocks and/or level2 oplocks help there? I'm not sure I see how they will. I'm at the mercy of the randomness of served software, right? Any info on this will help. Thanks Samba Team - You've done a great job so far - it is greatly appreciated!

Specifically the oplock break issue. Since one and only one user can have this space mapped in our implementation (because of credential conflicts that windows does not allow), how could a user have a detrimental experience with oplocks? It is the MS Windows client that decides whether or not to use file caching based on the server's ability to handle it. Only Samba allows this to be controlled on a per share basis. The performance difference is most noticible where the same file is repetitively accessed by the same application, but can be very significant also for MS Excel and MS Word files because of the way that they implement file access. Since only that user can open the files whether .xls, .mdb or .doc (don't mean to pick on M$-Office) there should be no issue, right? In single user access the issues are likely to be minor and I would enable oplocks. If the same user logs in multiple times and opens the same file on each machine then there is still a risk.
