SHOW OPEN TABLES [FROMdb_name] [LIKE 'pattern']
SHOW OPEN TABLES lists the
non-TEMPORARY tables that are currently
open in the table cache. See Section 7.4.8, “How MySQL Opens and Closes Tables”.
SHOW OPEN TABLES returns the following
fields:
Database
The database containing the table.
Table
The table name.
In_use
The number of table locks or lock requests there are for
the table. For example, if one client acquires a lock for
a table using LOCK TABLE t1 WRITE,
In_use will be 1. If another client
issues LOCK TABLE t1 WRITE while the
table remains locked, the client will block waiting for
the lock, but the lock request causes
In_use to be 2. If the count is zero,
the table is open but not currently being used.
Name_locked
Whether the table name is locked. Name locking is used for operations such as dropping or renaming tables.
