Abstract

Access to objects of a computing environment is managed. Access to an object of the computing environment is prohibited via one cached entity corresponding to the object, while access to the object is allowed via another cached entity. The cached entities are concurrently maintained for a period of time, but the one cached entity is in a shadow state. In one example, the cached entities are session locks and the object is a file system object.
