Hi!
Your options are:
- Make your transaction shorter
- Increase number of available locks (not very good one, since things
tend to get slow with a transaction holding thousands of locks)
- Change the locking level for affected table from row to page
- Lock the whole table for duration of your transactions.
Well, one doesn't know which option is worse, does one ? :)
