# Mariadb table locked

Arthur reports: MariaDB is not responding Saturday, July 24 2021 at 10:48 pm. I tried to enter data to the table ProbeSetXRef.pValue and when normally takes few seconds, now is more than 10 minutes without completion/responding.

Zach: before restarting the table can you check the status first?

some ideas here

we are still using MyISAM for these tables: a switch to InnoDB may help.
