Deadlock Issue

  • I was facing some serious deadlock issues in a high transaction table.

    For some select statement i have nolock .

    But for few i can not put nolock, as i need accurate data.

    this select statement becomes a deadlock victim at times.

    can someone throw some light on this please ?

  • You shouldn't be using nolock anyway, not as a 'default' solution. It has side-effects. http://sqlblog.com/blogs/andrew_kelly/archive/2009/04/10/how-dirty-are-your-reads.aspx

    Switch traceflag 1222 on. That will result in a deadlock graph been written to the error log every time a deadlock occurs. Post the result of that graph here.

    DBCC TRACEON(1222,-1)
