Ok, but this is really my problem: I cannot perform an ALTER TABLE with the system in production mode, because the ALTER TABLE hangs due an AccessShareLock.
We use two-tier mode, so is it necessary to shutdown all users before perform an ALTER TABLE? Is it this true?

Conflicts with the ACCESS EXCLUSIVE lock mode only.
The SELECT command acquires a lock of this mode on referenced tables. In general, any query that only reads a table and does not modify it will acquire this lock mode. """ in other words, everything is ok, AccessShareLock doesn't block anything but with anyone trying to change the structure of the table (ALTER, DROP) and with commands TRUNCATE, REINDEX, CLUSTER, and VACUUM FULL, and every select take it
