Transferring ownership

Transferring ownership of a document locks the copies of the document in all collaborating shares except the one to which you are transferring ownership and unlocks the copy of the document at the selected share. It also updates the status information that is shown at all collaborating shares. Transferring ownership requires:

• The selected share must be enlisted for the selected document as described in Enlisting remote shares for documents. 
• A copy of the document must already exist at the selected share, made by one of the GCF scheduled transfers.
• The selected document must be owned by the current share. You cannot transfer ownership between two remote shares.
