Cluster Level Locks
- 
      
Only one cluster level lock can be taken at a time.
 - 
      
If a cluster level lock is taken, it will block any database locks from being taken.
 - 
      
DML operations are not affected by these locks.
 - 
      
DDL operations that are affected by these locks are listed in Operations that Take Cluster Level Locks
 - 
      
Any blocked operations will queue.
 
Example: ADD LEAF is running on the cluster.CREATE TABLE tries to run, but is blocked until ADD LEAF completes.
