You will corrupt your data otherwise. See the issue (:`2397`) for more information. + - ``HDFStore`` may not support concurrent reads either, depending on the + underlying version of ``PyTables`` being used. See issue (:`7838`) + for more information. - If you use locks to manage write access between multiple processes, you may want to use :py:func:`~os.fsync` before releasing write locks. For convenience you can use ``store.flush(fsync=True)`` to do this for you.
