Session Summary
During this session, we will show a practical approach
to analyze performance tuning problems that involve Microsoft SQL Server lock
monitoring data. We will briefly discuss sp_who2, sysprocesses, and syslocks.
You should have a firm understanding of lock compatibility, lock escalation,
and know how to read syslock and sysprocesses data. The primary discussion will
highlight a few field-tested trending techniques that are low impact and fast
to deploy to quickly evaluate server lock activity. Many critical tuning issues
can be verified by using the Blocker Script method of writing and filtering
syslock and sysprocesses data.
