Abstract

Facilitating antivirus scan filing locking based on cluster lock mechanism in distributed file systems is provided herein. A system comprises a processor and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations. The operations comprise determining an antivirus scan status of an object, based on an open object request received from a node device of a cluster of node devices, which is determined through the use of Lock Value Blocks. The antivirus scanning of the object is a precondition for opening the object. The antivirus scan status of the object is one of an unscanned status, a queued status, or a scanned status. Further, the operations can comprise, based on the antivirus scan status being the queued status or the scanned status, selectively facilitating the opening of the object at the node device while circumventing the precondition.
