CONTAP-671754: Unable to Delete File with LMAS_DELETED Flag in the FlexCache environment
Issue
- File deletion fails via all standard ONTAP mechanisms (scrub, inode, overwrite)
- NTFS security style, owner/group set, inherited DACL/SACL entries
- No locks shown in vserver locks show
- SIDs in DACLs cannot be mapped ("Could not find Windows SID ...")
- File appears deleted but reappears after refresh
- Not a system panic; metadata/permission issue
- Relevant ONTAP version: 9.15.1P13, AFF-A250, cache-origin configuration (ONTAP cluster + CVO)
