Well since you mentioned SAP...
You may want to see if there were any SAP batch jobs running at the same
time period --AND-- an ABAP generation was occurring.
The ABAP generation that occurs during the background job will
effectively take out exclusive locks...

Subject: seen a Select (just a select no select for update) take out a
Table Exclusive lock (TX)
From one of the other DBAs here:
"Have any of you ever seen a Select (just a select no select for update)
take out a Table Exclusive lock (TX) ? we had one in SAP this morning on
ZPICK01 and the developers assure me that the transaction doesn't try to
update the table. The only thing I can think of, is that ZPICK01 is huge
and that Oracle tried to ensure some form of Read Consistency by making
the table TX. That said I'm still not certain that some switch in the
transaction isn't set to lock the table. Thoughts ?"
Gee, I haven't worked much on SAP lately, but I believe tables prefixed
Y and Z are custom tables, although I don't see why that would make a
difference.
Thanks
Larry
