Online Schema Changes

I've heard you can now make schema changes using
version 10 without having exclusive access to the
database, but I cannot find any documentation on this.
If possible, can I only add new tables, fields,
and/or indexes without exclusive access?

Also, we run a job scheduler. If I "kill" all users
with proshut, I am left with several job processes
with root as the owner and batch is the tty. Is there
a way I can leave these processes running and still
modify the schema?

Thanks in advance,
Shannon
