Isilon does not lock files that are being writen

Hello,

I'm trying to export a file in the isilon server. While the file is being written to the isilon cluster I'm able to rename it or delete it from another pc that also has acces to the isilon cluster.This is a very big problem. How can I fix this.Thank you !

    We'll need more specific details on your scenario. For example, are you using SMB and mandatory locking semantics? NFS and advisory locking? If NFS, how are you locking the file? Are you writing with SMB, then reading with NFS? Are you writing to one node, then reading from another node? etc, etc.

    In addition to posting here, I would also suggest opening an Isilon Support ticket for things like this...

    There is no direct lock interaction between these protocols, but you should be able to utilize filesystem ACLs to prevent user B from manipulating the file being FTP'd by user A (e.g. with a DENY ACE).  So I would suggest starting there (unless someone else on the forum can offer more detailed advice)...
