ISSUE/PROBLEM
NetWare Lite and Third-Party Caches
NetWare Lite v1.1 now ships with a disk cache called NLCACHE. See Fax
Document 2851 or FYI.P.6075 for particular in-depth details.
***** WARNING *****
Caches other than the NetWare Lite Cache may need to have delayed writes,
deferred writes, posted writes, or queued writes disabled if they are
used with NetWare Lite. Many cache programs "wake up" to do writes in
the background, and they do not protect themselves from reentry with a
DOS-critical section callout. If you use a cache (other than the NetWare
Lite Cache) with deferred writes, posted writes, or queued writes turned
on, you may get random hangs, data corruption, or other abnormal
behavior. To use a cache other then the NetWare Lite Cache, call the
cache company's technical support group to find out if their cache's
deferred writes, posted writes, or queued writes work with NetWare Lite.
Many caches do not allow delayed writes, deferred writes, posted writes,
or queued writes when using a peer-to-peer network. However, the NetWare
Lite Cache can use delayed writes. If you are using a cache that has one
of the above options, make sure the option is turned off. Some cache
tuning may be necessary for best results.
Note: Do not load two cache utilities on the same machine.
