Issue

In a FlexCache environment, a file may remain undeletable from the client after a Delete-on-Close operation. This can occur when stale lock information remains on the origin volume.
The volume flexcache scrub-stale-locks command is available in the cluster shell to help administrators clear stale locks. A periodic background process can also identify and scrub stale Delete-on-Close locks.
