public class NativeFSLockFactory extends FSLockFactory
Implements LockFactory
using native OS file
locks. Note that because this LockFactory relies on
java.nio.* APIs for locking, any problems with those APIs
will cause locking to fail. Specifically, on certain NFS
environments the java.nio.* locks will fail (the lock can
incorrectly be double acquired) whereas SimpleFSLockFactory
worked perfectly in those same
environments. For NFS based access to an index, it's
recommended that you try SimpleFSLockFactory
first and work around the one limitation that a lock file
could be left when the JVM exits abnormally.
The primary benefit of NativeFSLockFactory
is
that lock files will be properly removed (by the OS) if
the JVM has an abnormal exit.
Note that, unlike SimpleFSLockFactory
, the existence of
leftover lock files in the filesystem on exiting the JVM
is fine because the OS will free the locks held against
these files even though the files still remain.
If you suspect that this or any other LockFactory is
not working properly in your environment, you can easily
test it by using VerifyingLockFactory
, LockVerifyServer
and LockStressTest
.
