Hi Wol,
But, rather more seriously, we have had UV file corruption
which was laid pretty conclusively down to two systems
accessing the same dynamic file - oh and one of them, allegedly,
only had read access!
This is an even worse case of what I brought out in my earlier reply. A
dynamic file keeps information about its current modulus and load values
(etc) in shared memory. Having this on two separate systems is a recipe for
disaster.
UV introduced the ALLOWNFS configuration option long ago with a default
setting of 0 (no). When I deliver UV training, I take great care to
emphasise that setting this to 1 (yes) also means "it's all my fault if the
file gets corrupted".
