Opportunistic locks (oplocks) are a characteristic of the LAN
Oplocks:
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). By default Vista has Oplocks enabled and can not be disabled. If you are having network performance issues with applications sharing files from
the DNS-343 you may try to improve performance by setting Oplocks to No(off).
Map Archive:
When enabled, the file attribute "Archive" will be copied as the file is being stored on the DNS-343. Certain backup software attach this attribute to files that are being stored
as backups.
