DFS db file lock
Short Description
This event occurs only for the DBWR in Real Application Clusters. Each DBWR of every instance holds a global lock on each file in shared mode. The instance that is trying to offline the file will escalate the global lock from shared to exclusive. This signals the other instances to synchronize their SGAs with the control file before the file can be taken offline. The name of this lock is DF (see Appendix D, "Oracle Enqueue Names" for more information).
