SYMPTOMS
If an application that performs a snapshot backup tries to back up more than one database as part of the snapshot, a deadlock may occur. SQL Server may appear to stop responding (hang) because the snapshot backups cannot complete due to the deadlock, which prevents change activity on the server. You can establish new connections; however, you can only perform "read only" tasks.
