Examples

mysql> FLUSH TABLES;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK;
ERROR 1105 (HY000): FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK is not supported.  Please use @@tidb_snapshot

MySQL compatibility

  • TiDB does not have a concept of table cache as in MySQL. Thus, FLUSH TABLES is parsed but ignored in TiDB for compatibility.
  • The statement FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK produces an error, as TiDB does not currently support locking tables. It is recommended to use Historical reads for this purpose instead.
