The Priority Transactions feature automatically rolls back low-priority transactions that are blocking higher priority transactions from obtaining row locks.

This parameter is one of four initialization parameters that enable you to configure Priority Transactions. The other parameters are:

  • TXN_PRIORITY - Specifies a priority (HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW) for all transactions in a user session

  • PRIORITY_TXNS_MEDIUM_WAIT_TARGET - Specifies the maximum number of seconds that a MEDIUM priority transaction will wait for a row lock

  • PRIORITY_TXNS_MODE - Specifies whether to enable Priority Transactions or test Priority Transactions by running in tracking mode

Note:

This parameter is available starting with Oracle Database 23ai.
