  • Key Concepts: 
    Partition locking is a feature of SAP ASE (Adaptive Server Enterprise) that allows for the locking of individual partitions of a table. This feature allows for multiple users to access the same table simultaneously, while ensuring that each user has exclusive access to their own partition. This helps to prevent conflicts between users and ensures data integrity. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Partition locking can be enabled by setting the “partition_lock” option in the SAP ASE configuration file. Once enabled, users can specify which partitions they want to lock when they execute a query. This can be done by using the “lock partition” command in the query. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When using partition locking, it is important to ensure that the partitions are properly locked before executing any queries. This will help to prevent conflicts between users and ensure data integrity. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the partitions are unlocked after the query has been executed.
