  • Are you doing schema changes using UI (user interface)?

    If yes, I suggest, do the changes using SQL commands. It is much faster because, UI internally drops and recreates the table.

  • I also try so many times through commands also same result so much time it takes I donot know why

  • Run this while schema change is going on:

    select session_id, start_time, status, blocking_session_id, wait_type, wait_resource, wait_time

    from sys.dm_exec_requests

    where session_id = <spid>

  • I got this while running on changing schema

    what to do ??

    Now

  • Is your ALTER TABLE command running from SPID 97?

    It is blocked by SPID 118

    Check what SPID 118 is doing.

  • Thanks for replys

    No I just execute this simple command

    ALTER TABLE EMPLOYEE

    ADD Is_Employee_Updated BIT

    And find this issue.

    How I investigate what SPID 118 is doing.

  • DBCC INPUTBUFFER(118)

    is the quick and easy way to see the query run by SPID 118

    After that you can run the following for more details:

    SELECT er.session_id ,

    host_name , program_name , original_login_name , er.reads ,

    er.writes ,er.cpu_time , wait_type , wait_time , wait_resource ,

    blocking_session_id , st.text

    FROM sys.dm_exec_sessions es

    LEFT JOIN sys.dm_exec_requests er

    ON er.session_id = es.session_id

    OUTER APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(er.sql_handle) st

    WHERE blocking_session_id > 0

    UNION

    SELECT es.session_id , host_name , program_name , original_login_name ,

    es.reads , es.writes , es.cpu_time , wait_type , wait_time ,

    wait_resource , blocking_session_id , st.text

    FROM sys.dm_exec_sessions es

    LEFT JOIN sys.dm_exec_requests er

    ON er.session_id = es.session_id

    OUTER APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(er.sql_handle) st

    WHERE es.session_id IN ( SELECT blocking_session_id

    FROM sys.dm_exec_requests

    WHERE blocking_session_id > 0 )

    (Above query is taken from the book Troubleshooting SQL Server A Guide for the Accidental DBA Jonathan Kehayias and Ted Krueger)
