In BIND, isolation level parameter specifies the duration
of page lock and ACQUIRE, RELEASE also do almost the same
thing. What is the exact difference between the two? Do
they work in conjunction while executing SQL queries and
obtaining locks?

Answer Posted / guest

ACQUIRE, RELEASE determines when a partition, table or
tablespace lock will be acquired and released. ISOLATION
determines when a row, page lock will be acquired and
released. PAGE, ROW locks are released depending on the
ISOLATION level but almost always at commit or rollback.
