Understanding DFSR debug logging (Part 14: A sharing violation due to a file locked upstream between two Windows Server 2008)

In this scenario we will see file that is locked by an application, preventing replication from occurring. The upstream replicated folder will contain a file that does not yet exist on the downstream member. This is useful to understand as one of the most common troubleshooting areas in DFSR is in the area of sharing violation events.

 

(lockedfileupstream - Dfsr00026 - 2008.log and lockedfiledownstream - Dfsr00023 - 2008.log)

 

These are two Windows Server 2008 servers called 2008MEM01 and 2008MEM02 in the fabrikam.com domain. The logs are from 2008MEM01 (upstream) and from 2008MEM02 (downstream). Both servers are participating in the NEWRG1 replication group for the NEWRF1 replicated folder. The locked file is called “setup.exe” and the file has been exclusively write-locked with a file utility to simulate the scenario. These two debug logs have been significantly trimmed to remove extraneous entries caused by the repro requirements.
