ABSTRACT:
A system and method revokes soft locks in a distributed system. A data volume of the distributed system determines that one or more soft locks need to be revoked in order for an operation to be processed. The data volume transmits a request to revoke the soft locks to a meta-data volume that stores a canonical copy of meta-data.
