Hi,

CREATE RULE dosen't require any lock. It is carried out in the parser level. But there will be ACCESS SHARE lock over the tables which are being queried & are acquired automatically.

Thanks

Hey list,

Does CREATE RULE require an exclusive lock on the table it's making a rule for? For instance, if an insert is being done on the table, and you do 'create rule', it will wait for said insert to finish?

Thanks,
-Tim
