RE: Are Deadlocks function of extents number ?
Posted in 2004
Fred,
Deadlocks usually have two major reasons:
1. Poorly written/designed application
2. Tables with high concurrent insert/update access
are created with 'page' level locking.
My advise is to verify the locking mode
for those table, that cause deadlocks.
To identify these tables, run
select * from sysmaster:sysptprof order by deadlks desc
I can't imagine how deadlocks can relate to the number
of extents in the table.
