SYMPTOMS
If
you run an explicit UPDATE STATISTICS command against the same table from two
different connections at the same time, the two connections may deadlock. One
of the connections receives the following error message, and its UPDATE
STATISTICS command is canceled:
Server: Msg 1205, Level
13, State 50, Line 3
Transaction (Process ID 52) was deadlocked on lock
resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim.
Rerun the transaction.
Deadlocks and their accompanying 1205 errors
are not unique to this situation. Deadlocks may also occur in many other,
unrelated scenarios. If you enable trace flag 1204 to capture more details
about this particular deadlock, you see the two connections deadlocked on
clustered index KEY resources on the
sysindexes table (object ID 2). One of the two connections tries to convert
a shared lock to an update lock, and trace flag 1204 output reports the
statement type for both connections as UPDATE STATISTICS.
