Fwd: Question: What sort of lock occurs during Optimization?

["Mark Dombeck, Ph.D." <mark@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

> I've got a quick question - In section 7.11 of the manual on
> Optimize_Table it states that the table is "locked" during
> optimization.  It does not state however, if this is a
> read-lock, a write-lock or both.  Can you clarify?
>
> Thanks
