Overriding an Export Lock

Override the lock for a File Storage export when performing an action such as an update, move, or deletion.

Required IAM Policy

To override locks, in addition to permission to manage exports, you need permissions to manage locks.

To update or delete an export with a full lock, you must have RESOURCE_LOCK_REMOVE and RESOURCE_LOCK_ADD permissions.

To move an export with a full lock, you must have RESOURCE_LOCK_REMOVE permission in the source compartment and RESOURCE_LOCK_ADD in the target compartment. If the lock was created by a service, RESOURCE_LOCK_REMOVE and RESOURCE_LOCK_ADD permissions in the compartment of the lock.

  • You can't use the Console to override a File Storage resource lock. Remove the lock, or use the CLI or API.

  • Include the required --is-lock-override parameter with the command to override the lock on an export. For example:

    oci fs export update --export-id <export_OCID> --is-lock-override true [OPTIONS]

    For more information and examples, see Working with NFS Exports and Export Options.

    For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.

  • Include the required isLockOverride parameter as true with the operation to override the lock on an export.

    For more information and examples, see Working with NFS Exports and Export Options.

    For information about using the API and signing requests, see REST API documentation and Security Credentials. For information about SDKs, see SDKs and the CLI.
