Re: Request to confirm which command is use for exclusive operation

[Yogesh Sharma <yogeshraj95@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear David,

 I want to apply explicitly lock mechanism once inset operation is in progress then REINDEX will wait.

And vice versa.

So, please let me know this type of handling is possible.

Regrds,

Yogesh

Dear all,

Thanks for your support.

I need to perfrom INSERT and REINDEX operation exclusively.

For example:

If REINDEX operation is in progress then INSERT operation will wait  and vice versa.

Please let me know if any approach is available.

The docs describe REINDEX locking mechanics.

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-reindex.html

That a reindex blocks writes implies the reverse, any writes in progress will prevent the reindex from starting.
