Abstract
A data processing system includes a processor; and a memory comprising programming instructions for execution by the processor to manage data files stored using both local and cloud data storage. The instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to obtain a handle with an oplock on a selected file; set a timer; and dehydrate the selected file when the timer elapses provided that the oplock remains unbroken when the file is dehydrated.
