Note: Using synchronous writes allows for greater data integrity. Asynchronous writes will increase
performance but will reduce data integrity as the data is cached before being written to disk.
Changing the write state causes the NFS service to be restarted. Notify users before toggling this
setting.

NFS Locks
NFS supports the ability to lock files. File locking helps prevent two or more users from
working with the same files at the same time.
NFS locking depends on the software application components to manage the locks. If an
application does not lock a file or if a second application does not check for locks before
writing to the file, nothing prevents the users from overwriting files.
