Hi Alireza,

Tables details below as per my knowledge. @Dev Please correct if any detail
is wrong.

- sync_queue and sync_queue_item tables are used for handling the entity
(VM, host, etc) queues and concurrent control. Mainly, all the VM sync jobs
pass through this queuing.
- async_job - all the async jobs and related place holder VM async jobs (if
any).
- vm_work_job - extension to place holder VM async job in async_job, which
holds VM id and the job stage.
- op_ha_work - holds the VM work items to perform HA on the VMs, scheduled
or cancelled based on the VM state.
- op_lock - Used to acquire lock on a record in the given table (key:
<tablename> + <entityid>) for a transaction by a running thread in the
Management Server. Lock is released once the transaction is completed and
corresponding record will be deleted.

Hope this helps!

-Suresh
