fcntl locking works if you mount the filesystem on the clients with -
o flock.

Hi Joe,
I know that as of v1.6.2, POSIX file locking semantics did not work.
The 1.6 roadmap, the last time I looked at it, indicated that
support is coming but had not yet been implemented.
cheers,
Klaus

stone tablets:
The roadmap (links to that on google fail, but found a PDF) reports
that 1.6 release marks lockf/flock support as possible/untested. I
see
from the changelogs that it should be there. I have setup a lustre
filesystem for use in the CAD space for simulations. ModelSim, for
whatever reason, is failing to lock files in the its chain of
attempted lock mechanisms, and in the end tries and fails to use NFS
style locks, or so the CAD guys tell me. I'm curious if this _should_
work on 1.6, and if not, is there a relatively accessible 1.8 build
with this currently?
