Frequently, we import a production dump that contains only 1 or 2 databases into one of our QA instances that contains many more databases. (i.e. "database" being a "schema" or a "catalogue). At the beginning of the import script, we first drop all objects in the QA database so that it will be a perfect match (object wise) to production.
Is there an easy way to lock the whole database for the duration of the import - so that no developers can update the database? Obviously, I can revoke permissions, but I was wondering whether there is a better approach.
Thanks, David.
