HP CIFS Client A.02.02.03 Administrator's Guide

attributes read-only, hidden and system are taken into
account. linkMode defines the actual state that these
attributes must have. It is 6 by default, which means that
hidden and system must be set, but not read-only. The
configuration value is calculated as the sum of the following
components:

linksAreUnicode If this boolean variable is set to yes, the HP CIFS Client
stores faked links in Unicode format on the server. This is
incompatible with the CygWin32 format for symbolic links,
but allows lossless storage of client paths. If it is set to no,
symbolic links are more or less compatible to those of
CygWin32 on Windows, but a conversion to the server
character set is performed. Regardless of this variable, the
HP CIFS Client can read symbolic link files in both formats.
attributesCacheTime File attributes are cached for this amount of time (in
milliseconds).
dirCacheTime Directory contents are cached for this amount of time (in
milliseconds).
maxCachedFiles This is the maximum number of file objects that are held as
cache of NFS file handles. If an NFS file handle is requested
which is not in the cache, it must be looked up recursively,
which may result in a notable performance loss. Recursive
lookups are logged as rare events.
dataCacheSize This is the size of the data cache that is allocated for open
files in bytes. The value is rounded to a multiple of the
cache's page size, which is derived from the maximum
transferable size. The page size will always be a power of
two. (move to cifs.dataCacheSize)
closeDelay This variable defines the time a file is kept open when it is
not used. The value is a dictionary with the following keys:
exclusiveLock
The keep-open time in milliseconds if an exclusive oplock
has been acquired.
batchLock
The keep-open time in milliseconds if a batch oplock has
been acquired.
noLock
The keep-open time in milliseconds if no lock has been
granted.
dataCacheTimeNoLock If no oplock has been granted, no caching should be done.
This might result in bad performance on servers that do not
support oplocks. This value sets a cache-valid time (in
milliseconds) that is used if no oplock was granted.
readAhead This variable defines the number of cache pages to read
ahead. It is a dictionary with the following keys:
