Hi,
we encountered a strange deadlock problem with maxdb 7.5.0.30
Taking two tables A and B.
B references A by a foreign key on cascade delete (or cascade set null).
As far as I understood the following locking will happen internally if
I remove a row from A:
1. exclusive row lock on A
2. shared table lock on B
3. exclusive row lock on B
4. delete row on A
5. delete row on B
If I remove two different rows from A simultaneously there could be a
deadlock if Step 2 if both processes will be executed at nearly the
same time.
One process will be rolled back.
So far so good.
But if this happend with 3 or more processes only one process will be
rolled back. The others will stay in deadlock situation and nothing
happens there any more.
My questions:
1. How can I avoid this deadlock situation in general?
2. If this is not possible, how can I avoid the problem with 3 or
more processes.
regards,
Michael
