Hi ,
We have a table    wbxdata (xxxx…)  partition by range(starttime) , and have a default partition, now we want to add a new partition and move the data from default partition to new added partition.
 
Begin; 
  Alter table only  wbxdata … detach partition  wbxdata_pdefault;          ---from here, accessexclusive lock on wbxdata_pdefault default partition, and it block all query on parent table wbxdata. 
 Insert into wbxdata_p2305 select * from wbxdata_pdefault where starttime >= ‘2023-05-01 00:00:00’::date and starttime < ‘2023-06-01 00:00:00’;
Delete from wbxdata_pdefault where starttime >= ‘2023-05-01 00:00:00’::date and starttime < ‘2023-06-01 00:00:00’;
Alter table only wbxdata attach partition wbxdata_p2305 for values from ‘‘2023-05-01 00:00:00’ TO  ‘2023-06-01 00:00:00’;
Alter table attach default partition;
End;
Is it expected to see all query even select on  parent table  wbxdata got blocked , when  detach default partition and attach default partition ?    Postgresql 14.7 version.
 
Thanks,
 
James
