Alter table commad taking more time to update table structure.

  • Hi,

    We are trying to add one column with some default value in a table, which contains 25 crores rows of data. The query (Alter table command)is running from the last 1.5 hrs and sill not executed. We tried to kill the process also but not succeeded.

    Anyone having any idea..

    thanks in advance.

    IDEA: "wait".

    You have apparently a very large table. (I have no Idea which of the "crores" you are referring to but either Iranian or Indian is still a large number.)

    Just verify you are not being blocked and wait.
