Prevent users to access a database that's being copystyle compacted (or make -L switch work)

For large databases compact can take a while. If users are trying to hit the database it will interrupt the copystyle compact. Preventing the access will make compact process a lot less time-consuming.

      I do recommend to not run copy style compact unless you really really need it. In 2020 you dont need to shrink the dbsize every day/week anymore, optimizing whitespace within the file(without reducing the file size is enough and will also avoid on disk fragmentation.
