The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Oracle Locking Modes

Asked by Vikas_Dixit in Oracle Database

Tags: oracle, lock, modes

Experts,

Can some one tell me the definition and what types of statement will create locks in different modes i.e
0, 'None',
1, 'Null',
2, 'Row-S (SS)',
3, 'Row-X (SX)',
4, 'Share',
5, 'S/Row-X (SSX)',   ** Specially this one
6, 'Exclusive'

I have a scenario where i am facing blocking lock problem :

An user is modifying MY_TABLE fromFront end, and  FE holds lock in "Row-X (SX)" mode.  The FE has selected record using  "SELECT * FROM MY_TABLE WHERE KEY = :A1 FOR UPDATE NOWAIT "

Now in a different session Application Server trying to delete another record in the same table and Holds lock in "Row-X (SX)" mode  because of " SELECT ROWID FROM MY_TABLE WHERE KEY = :B1 FOR UPDATE "
and requeste S/Row-X (SSX), to Execute the statement "DELETE MY_TABLE WHERE ROWID = :B1"

Here's how the dba_dml_locks looks like :
SESSION_ID      NAME      MODE_HELD      MODE_REQUESTED      LAST_CONVERT
51      MY_TABLE      Row-X (SX)      S/Row-X (SSX)      3344
70      MY_TABLE      Row-X (SX)      None               3688

Now the FE Lock Becomes blocking. Any help in understanding this is much appreciated.

Regards,
Vikas Dixit
