I believe both GPFS and Lustre work well (GPFS certainly does it as we use it in production at work). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_General_Parallel_File_System#Architecture https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lustre_(file_system)#Locking GPFS is proprietary of course, and Lustre is open source (kind-of-sort-of premiumware with a bunch of people selling appliances and consultancy).
