Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: truncate partition table causes high latch free
we had some difficulties with 'truncate partition' too. first,
'truncate partition' seemed to lock the whole table during the
truncate. second, all parsed statements accessing the table were
invalidated.
we have circumvented the problem by implementing a rolling window using
'drop partition' and 'split partition'. works a lot better. haven't
found time to further investigate the issue, maybe it's a bug, maybe
it's by design.
regards,
