"The document is locked for editing by another user" error not presented when a file is opened after another user has the file open
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- Microsoft Office products such as Excel and Word
- CIFS/SMB
Issue
- When Microsoft Office document is opened in Read/Write mode for editing by one user, and another user attempt to open the document, the second user is allowed to open the document in Read/Write mode.
- The expectation is when the second user opens the same file in Read/Write mode, error "The document is locked for editing by another user" should be received by the first user.
