In my reference document, LMODE=4 is "shared", while TX enqueues are always with mode 6 like here: QL> select * from v$lock where sid=28; ADDR KADDR SID TY ID1 ID2 LMODE REQUEST -------- -------- ---------- -- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- CTIME BLOCK ---------- ---------- 734B89C0 734B8ACC 28 TX 196645 100864 6 0 62 0 7345BFA8 7345BFBC 28 TM 40371 0 3 0 62 0 Here, I have a locked row. TX lock (row lock) is mode 6 (eexclusive) and DDL lock (TM) is mode 3 (Shared, row-exclusive). I don't see how can you have 4 in the LMODE field and TX in the Type field. -- Mladen Gogala Oracle DBA ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
