How to Enable Cross-Protocol Locking

1. Become an administrator.

   For more information, see Using Your Assigned Administrative Rights in Securing Users and Processes in Oracle Solaris 11.4.

2. Set the nbmand mount option for an existing file system by using one of the following methods:

   • Set the option by using the zfs create command.

     When using the ZFS file system, you can also set the nbmand option when the file system is created so that the file system uses nbmand automatically:

     $ zfs create -o nbmand=on pool/dataset

     The following example combines the nbmand option with the mixed-case sensitivity option:

     $ zfs create -o casesensitivity=mixed -o nbmand=on -o mountpoint=mntpt ztank/myfs

     Note:

     The casesensitivity property is set to mixed by default on ZFS file systems.

   • Set the option by using the zfs set command.

     $ zfs set nbmand=on pool/dataset

     For example, the following command sets the nbmand option for the ztank/myfs file system:

     $ zfs set nbmand=on ztank/myfs

     Note:

     The nbmand property takes effect only after the file system is unmounted and remounted.
