Oppor tunistic locks (oplocks) are a
characteristic of the LAN Manager networking
protocol implemented in the 32-Bit Windows
family. Oplocks are guarantees made by
a server for a shared logical volume to its
clients. These guarantees inform the Client
that a file’s content will not be allowed to be
changed by the server, or if some change is
imminent, the client will be notified before the
change is allowed to proceed.
Oplocks are designed to increase network
performance when it comes to network
file sharing however when using file-based
database applications it is recommended to
set the share oplocks to No (off).
