Each entry has a description of the resource followed by the lists of the processes that held a lock or requested a lock on that resource. It shows what processes were fighting over and what types of locks they were causing. Resources section displays the lists with all the resources which were involved in the deadlock: Let’s choose one we’ve just simulatedĪnd look at its deadlock graph (in form of XML) details consisting of resources and processes sections. There you can find deadlock reports which marked as “xml_deadlock_report”. Thousands of events will be shown in the opened window. To do this, go to “Management” > “Extended Events” > “Sessions” > “system_health” > “package0.event_file” and click “View Target Data…” You can retrieve a deadlock graphs retrospectively from the extended events “system_health” session. Starting from SQL Server 2008 everything is much easier. It helps to understand why the deadlock happened.īefore SQL Servers 2008, in order to capture this information you had to set up a server-side tracing or enable trace flags and then wait while the deadlock occurs. How to Analyze Deadlock GraphsĪ deadlock graph is a block of information showing what resources and sessions are involved in a deadlock. It is caused by a situation when the first transaction is waiting for the second one (to release t2) while the second transaction is also waiting the first (to release t1) one in the same time. It needs to be waiting for the first transaction to complete and release table t1.īut, assume that the first transaction now deletes the same row from the second table: DELETE FROM t2 WHERE id = 2Īfter executing this statement you should receive the following error message: Transaction (Process ID) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Then, assume that the other transaction is going to delete the same rows from both tables: BEGIN TRAN Now, suppose we started a transaction that deletes rows with id=2 from t1: BEGIN TRAN Let’s create two tables “t1” and “t2” containing only one integer column: CREATE TABLE t1 (id int)Īnd fill them with some data: INSERT INTO t1 (id) Rerun the transaction” error happens let’s consider a very simple example. To understand how “ Transaction (Process ID) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. As a rule, the victim is the session that requires the least amount of overhead to rollback. Rerun the transaction.Īnd the killed session is rolled back. In such case, the client receives the following error message: Transaction (Process ID) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. It gets rid of the deadlock by automatically choosing one of the sessions as a victim and kills it allowing the other session to continue. As a result, none of the sessions can be completed and SQL Server has to intervene to solve this problem. INNER LOOP JOIN dbo.Parts p WITH (ROWLOCK INDEX(IX_Parts)) ON mp.uidPartID = p.uidPartID AND p.“Transaction was deadlocked” error occurs when two or more sessions are waiting to get a lock on a resource which has already locked by another session in the same blocking chain. INNER LOOP JOIN dbo.MessageParts mp WITH (ROWLOCK INDEX(CIX_MessageParts)) ON t.uidMessageID = mp.uidMessageID These are BizTalk internal Jobs are Procedures involved.įROM (SELECT TOP 50 uidMessageID, nID FROM dbo.TrackingMessageReferences WITH (ROWLOCK INDEX(IX_TrackingMessageReferences)) ORDER BY nID ASC) as t Can anyone help me understand more and resolve this?

Analysing the deadlock give me some idea that the App Lock is deadlocking on BizTalk Job 'TrackedMessages_Copy_BizTalkMsgBoxDb'. Below is the xml of deadlock i observed today.
