What is the isolation level of each transaction? session begins SET GLOBAL TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED; session ends session begins SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE; transaction 1 transaction 2 SET SESSION TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL REPEATABLE READ; transaction 3 transaction 4 SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ COMMITTED; transaction 5 session ends

1: Serializable 2: Read Uncommitted 3: Repeatable Read 4: Repeatable Read 5: Read Committed

Refer to the schedule below : T1 reads X T2 reads Y T2 writes Z T1 writes Y T2 writes X deadlock Deadlock occurs because T1 is waiting for an exclusive lock on Y, and T2 is waiting for an exclusive lock on X. When deadlock occurs, the database rolls back T2 and completes T1. Order the log records to match the schedule.

1: Start T1 2: Start T2 3: Update T2, Z... 4: Undo T2, Z... 5: Rollback T2 6: Update T1, Y... 7: Commit T1

What is the transaction boundary of 1, 3, 6, 8? session begins SET autocommit = OFF; session ends session begins statement 1 statement 2 statement 3 START TRANSACTION; statement 4 COMMIT AND CHAIN; statement 5 statement 6 statement 7 ROLLBACK; statement 8 session ends3

1: start 3: end 6: neither start nor end 8: both start and end
