| Event Information | "According to Microsoft: CAUSE : This issue may occur for either of the following reasons: • FRS cannot install a file at the destination location because it encountered a sharing violation. • FRS cannot generate the staging file to be replicated because FRS encountered a sharing violation. A sharing violation can occur if other sources have open handles to the file to be replicated. Typically, programs that can instigate sharing violations are: • Antivirus programs • Disk optimization tools • File system policies that repeatedly apply access control list (ACL) changes • A user profile or personal data that is constantly in use that is placed on the replica set • Any other type of data that is held open for long periods by an end user, a program, or a process RESOLUTION : To resolve this issue, use one of the following methods. Method 1: Use the Install Override Feature: You can use the Install Override feature in Windows Server 2003 to rename the locked file. This allows FRS to replicate the file. For additional information about how to turn on this feature and use it, click the Article Q816493 . Method 2: Identify the Locked Files and Release the Handles If you are not using Windows Server 2003 or if you do not want to turn on the Install Override feature, the only way to prevent the issue from occurring is to release the handles of the locked files. However, because the 13573 event is only reported for the number of times per hour that is specified in the Max Sharing Violation Event setting, files in the same situation may not have been reported yet. Therefore, to release the handles of all locked files, you must first identify the complete set of open files. To track the problem in Windows 2000, download and install the fix that is documented in the Article Q815473. With this hotfix, you can set the options to control the logging of event 13573.
