FIX: SH_PAGE Locks Held on Text or Image Data in Service Pack 1 (155815)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft SQL Server 6.5 Service Pack 1 and later
This article was previously published under Q155815

SYMPTOMS

Table lock escalation, and subsequent blocking, can occur if a query selects text, or image columns and rows are searched with a unique index.

WORKAROUND

Increase the LE Threshold Maximum configuration value with sp_configure so that it takes more locks before the query escalates from page locks to table locks.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5 Service Pack 1. This problem has been corrected in U.S. Service Pack 2 for Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5. For more information, contact your primary support provider.
