Create table t, and insert data into it. When the statistics of table t are not locked, the ANALYZE statement can be successfully executed.

mysql> create table t(a int, b int);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.03 sec)

mysql> insert into t values (1,2), (3,4), (5,6), (7,8);
Query OK, 4 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 4  Duplicates: 0  Warnings: 0

mysql> analyze table t;
Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.02 sec)

mysql> show warnings;
+-------+------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+
| Level | Code | Message                                                         |

1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Lock the statistics of table t and execute ANALYZE. From the output of SHOW STATS_LOCKED, you can see that the statistics of table t have been locked. The warning message shows that the ANALYZE statement has skipped table t.

mysql> lock stats t;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> show stats_locked;
