always show someone opened the file on new FreeNASserver

[sasad000]

Hello all,
My company using the FreeNAS for data server(9.2)
I am a new staff and need to build a new FreeNAS data server(CIFS) 16TB-16 GB RAM
So, I copy all data to new server and set account, data-set permission

The problem is:
The new server no anyone to access, just my testing now. I try to rename the folder/file or open the excel and save. That always show warning message someone opened the file, please try later.
I stop my anti-virus the problem is same.

16TB--> one Volume--> 25 dataset for 25 share folder <---Cause too many data-set?
Testing version: FreeNAS 9.2, 9.3 ,9.10 Same problem.

Are you using Active Directory?

Are you using Active Directory?

Thank you for reply,
No Active Directory, using FreeNAS internal account only

It sounds like you have a permissions issue. This video may help: https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/how-to-freenas-and-samba-cifs-permissions-video.41210/

It is also possible there's something in your Windows install that is accessing files. thumbs.db has been a recurring problem, but other software like Adobe Acrobat Reader and others have been known to lock files open and leave you with this issue.

You can't have "too many datasets" until you hit 4-digits. :P

Hello, May I know what mean of hit 4-digits?

He means when you start to have thousands of datasets you might have to many.

When you copied the data, was the Excel file in question already opened? Meaning was there already a "Lock on the file" (Usually it creates a secondary file that starts with "~$")? If so, then it would indeed think that the file is still "In-Use". May just want to delete that temp lock file.

Also, may want to try the test on a newly created Excel file (if you are not doing this already).

P.S. Out of curiosity, why are you using so many datasets and shares?
