Description

Users can specify a Label. If not specified, the system will generate a Label automatically.

Syntax

BEGIN [ WITH LABEL <label> ]

Optional Parameter

[ WITH LABEL <label> ]

Explicitly specify the Label associated with the transaction. If not specified, the system will generate a label automatically.

Notes

  • If an explicit transaction is started without a commit or rollback, executing the BEGIN command again will not take effect.

Examples

Start an explicit transaction using a system-generated Label

mysql> BEGIN;
{'label':'txn_insert_624a0e16ef4c43d4-9814c7fa3e83a705', 'status':'PREPARE', 'txnId':''}

Start an explicit transaction with a specified Label

mysql> BEGIN WITH LABEL load_1;
{'label':'load_1', 'status':'PREPARE', 'txnId':''}
