Translating with DrWatson… this can take a few seconds the first time.
This is a genuine, complex translation. DrWatson protects commands, error codes, and log output while naturally translating the surrounding text. It’s translated once and saved.
Anu_R wanted a SELECT-only session to hang and wondered about corrupting the database. Gorazd Hribar Rajteric said an earlier hang had turned out to be a corrupt index, but he did not know how to cause one deliberately. Obnoxio The Clown and Malc P joked about pulling the server's power. No real solution.

Hi,
Thanks. I dont want to use any statement except for the SELECT in
session2. I am aware that issuing a SET LOCK MODE in 2nd session will
cause the SELECT to hang.
But, I need to only use a SELECT statement.
So, I was thinking if I can corrupt the database in some way, probably
SELECT might hang.
How about your ideas?
Anu_R

More than a year ago we experienced such kind of trouble. Later we found out
that index was corrupt, but I have no idea on how to do it on purpose.

Try running your disks on a separate power supply from the server, then pull
the plug from the server. That ought to do it. :o)

Not my own, but it's probably quite a good way of rogering a system.
