Is it possible to have update in a iterative loop with start index and range wtih the query? I wouuld like to have the update happen in steps with loop to avoid getting the entire table locked.

Also, I do fine the query takes around 10.88 secs to update to complete. this is one reason i prefer to have update happen in steps so that entire table locking do not happen.

its innodb table.

Regards

Harish
