MySQL Error 3641: Concurrent Tablespace DDL
Description
This error indicates that an operation, typically one attempting to access or process a tablespace's definition, was skipped. It occurs because another Data Definition Language (DDL) statement was actively modifying the tablespace's definition at the exact same time, leading to a temporary metadata conflict.
Error Message
Tablespace '%s' was skipped since its definition is being modified by concurrent DDL statement
Known Causes
3 known causesSimultaneous DDL on Tablespace
Another DDL statement (e.g., ALTER TABLESPACE, DROP TABLESPACE) is executing simultaneously on the same tablespace, causing a temporary lock or metadata inconsistency.
Information Schema Query Conflict
A query to INFORMATION_SCHEMA or an internal server process tries to read tablespace metadata while it's being updated by another DDL operation.
Long-running DDL Operations
A DDL statement modifying tablespace definitions takes an extended period, increasing the window for concurrent operations to conflict.
