Unlock/force close the open files - VMAX eNAS SMB Share

Hi Everyone,

 

We have provisioned a share drive from VMAX eNAS which contains mostly drawings files and one of the user/admin would like to replace the files when updated drawings available but the files are locked as other users might have opened.

We were able to close the file by connecting to cifs server computer management but every time user has to come to the storage team to get it done which is tedious job.

 

What is the easiest solution to help the user in this case?

Hi, Thanks for sharing the article but that doesn't answer my question. I have asked an option to close the files but article is about provisioning.

Hello AnushaB,

There is not any setting that can be applied on your Vmax to achieve what you are wanting.  You would have to create a custom script to do that.
