Properties summary
You cannot modify a table while it is in use. When a table has no activity for a default of 2 seconds, it will be closed so you can modify it.
When a table is in use, the following actions return an error, such as -8 or 4012:
"alterTable"
"rebuildTables"
"deleteTables"
"createIndex"
"deleteIndexes"
"rebuildIndexes"
"runSqlStatements"
A table is in use when any account is performing one or more of the following actions with the table:
"insertRecords"
"updateRecords"
"deleteRecords"
"truncateRecords"
"getRecords..."
Has open cursors on the table.
Has open transactions on the table (such "createTransaction").
Modify the
SQL_IDLE_WAKEstartup configuration setting to change the number of seconds the server waits before closing a table. A larger number keeps the table open longer for better performance. A smaller number allows you to modify the table sooner.Modify the
SQL_IDLE_WAKEstartup configuration setting to change the number of tables the server keeps open after they are no longer being actively used. A larger number caches more tables and improves performance. A smaller number allows you to modify tables sooner.
