Can rename table but can not truncate table

一个表无法truncate可是能够rename，这个乍听起来认为好奇怪，以下模拟该过程。

3个session：

session1运行truncate和rename操作。

session2运行lock表操作；

session3进行监控。

 

session1：

[gpadmin@wx60 contrib]$ psql gtlions
psql (8.2.15)
Type "help" for help.

gtlions=# \d test
             Table "public.test"
 Column |          Type          | Modifiers
--------+------------------------+-----------
 id     | integer                |
 name   | character varying(200) |
Indexes:
    "idxtestid" btree (id)
    "idxtestname" btree (name)
Distributed by: (id)

gtlions=# select pg_backend_pid();
 pg_backend_pid
----------------
           1473
(1 row)

gtlions=# truncate table test;
Cancel request sent
ERROR:  relation "test" does not exist
gtlions=# alter table test rename to test1;
ALTER TABLE

session2：

[gpadmin@wx60 ~]$ psql gtlions
psql (8.2.15)
Type "help" for help.

gtlions=# select pg_backend_pid();
 pg_backend_pid
----------------
           1555
(1 row)

gtlions=# begin;
BEGIN
gtlions=# select * from test limit 10;
  id   |    name
-------+------------
 19672 | 19672-asfd
 19674 | 19674-asfd
 19676 | 19676-asfd
 19678 | 19678-asfd
 19680 | 19680-asfd

 19686 | 19686-asfd
 19688 | 19688-asfd
 19690 | 19690-asfd
(10 rows)

gtlions=# end;
COMMIT

session3：

[gpadmin@wx60 ~]$ psql gtlions
psql (8.2.15)
