Fixing Schema Mismatch crashes production?

I have added a new row to a very big table in my debug branch and debug database.

I then updated the production table using the “schema mismatch” tool. This took many minutes.

While that was running my app (production-side) was completely down while my debug branch was running fine. I don’t think I did any other stuff to prod at this time or before.

Is this a known effect of doing the “schema mismatch” and expected? This was a shock to me!

Or did something else happen?

If this can’t be avoided, it should be documented clearly (maybe I missed it of course :slight_smile: ) and then going forward I can take this into account by announcing maintanence etc.
