DirtyRead Open for reading only. You are allowed to read uncommitted pages in the smart large object.
LockAllIf this is part of the access mode then any locks placed on the smart large object will lock the entire smart large object.
LockRangeIf this is part of the access mode then you are allowed to lock a range in the smart large object without locking the entire smart large object.
NobufferIf this is part of the access mode the reads and writes will use private buffers from the session pool of the database server.
