SQL 2012 :: Deadlocks - Not Showing In Profiler

Feb 24, 2015

We have some Deadlock alerts set up in SQL Agent that email us when the performance counter for deadlocks goes above zero. I've used the following script to identify the event file which has deadlock information in there.

select CAST(target_data as xml) as TargetData
from sys.dm_xe_session_targets st
join sys.dm_xe_sessions s on s.address = st.event_session_address
where name = 'system_health'

Now that is fine, and we're looking into that (number of deadlocks appear to be 0.5) but out of interest ran a SQL Profiler session to capture the details as well and nothing is showing, I've received a few alerts and the trace file has information in there - but profiler shows absolutely nothing (all deadlock events are captured)

SQL Server 2012 :: Query Execution Not Showing Up In Profiler Trace

Aug 22, 2014

Set up a trace with the events RPC:Completed, SQL:BatchCompleted, SQL:BatchStarting, and SQL:StmtCompleted.

When I issue the statement: SELECT * FROM XyzView there is nothing captured in Profiler. If I script out the view and then execute the select statement that defines the view, it does show up in Profiler.

I've tried adding a lot of the other events, i.e. SP:StmtCompleted and the various other StmtStarting events and the trace still does not capture anything.

Am I capturing the wrong events or is this known behavior? My goal is to see what the overhead is for using a view versus persisting the results of the view as a table and referencing that instead. The view in question is against static data, joins 9 tables, and is referenced a lot.

I can use the stats generated when I execute the select that defines the view but I still find this to be curious behavior so I assume I'm doing something wrong.

Deadlocks In Profiler

Jul 23, 2005

I'm trying to diagnose deadlocks in SQL Profiler. The deadlocks weregenerated by Loadrunner scripts (stress testing) simulating applicationSQL via an ODBC DSN connection.2 things are puzzling me in the SQL Profiler traces that I have logged1) There are a large number of Lock:Timeout events but the 'locktimeout' setting is the default 'wait forever' so I dont know what istiming out.2)When say 2 distinct SPIDs are in a Deadlock Chain, they are using thesame ClientProcessId at the time of deadlock. What is theClientProcessId and is it relevant to the deadlock?Thank you in advance for any replies.

SQL 2012 :: Deadlocks In Partitioned Tables?

Oct 31, 2015

We are using partitions and all the table are properly aligned as per the partition keys. When this particular sp, which is inserting data to a table from a different table based on the partitionkeys is called by Web UI where threading has been applied, dead lock appears.

Let me make it more clear.

ThreadOne:
Insert into table A(partitionKey,BatchId,...)
select * from table B where partitionkey = 1
ThreadTwo:
Insert into table A(partitionKey,BatchId,...)
select * from table B where partitionkey = 2

I can see sometimes it gives deadlock for this procedure, not sure about the reason, as far as I guess since the tables are partitioned and escalation is set to Auto the deadlock should not occur.

SQL 2012 :: Mysterious Deadlocks On Heap Table

Jul 4, 2014

We have a highly transactional database. It was owned by a third party before but now both the database and the application is on our site and we are trying to improve this project. So, we have a big (902919 rows), heap table, which is getting bigger and bigger everyday and sometimes deadlocks occur. The table has only 4 columns, "token", "type", "value" and "cacheTime", unique index cannot be created. It has one index on "token"(char(36)) and "type"(varchar(50)) ("value" should also be included but it is nvarchar(max)).

<deadlock-list>
<deadlock victim="process670ba10c8">

SQL 2012 :: Deadlocks Between Application Queries And Replication?

SQL 2012 :: Deadlock XDL File Remains Empty Even During Deadlocks

Mar 13, 2015

In order to troubleshoot some deadlocking that I am seeing on SQL Server, I am trying to capture the Deadlock XML by enabling the Events Extraction Settings option 'Save Deadlock XML events separately' and specifying a Deadlock XML results file.

Meanwhile, I am also tracing the Deadlock graph, Lock:Deadlock, and Lock:Deadlock Chain events. Yet the xdl file remains empty even though I am getting hits on the events themselves in the SQL Profiler trace.

Also, I have the following trace flag settings enabled.

TraceFlagStatusGlobalSession
1204110
1222110

Why the xdl file remains empty even though (I think) it should contain some XML for deadlocks that are actually happening?

SQL 2012 :: Server Profiler - Failed To Start A New Trace

Aug 3, 2014

I am attempting to create a new trace but I get the following error message: "failed to start a new trace".

I have been doing some digging and as I understand it, I had to find the directory Profiler uses for temporary files. So, I typed the following in the command window "SET TMP" and I received the following reply:

C:UsersRossAppDataLocalTemp

Now, according to the forum: [URL] ...

I am supposed to check that the system folder pointed to by the TMP environment variable exists and is not crammed with files.

Well, when I went to the directory C:UsersRossAppDataLocalTemp, it is indeed full of both files and directories. The size is 16.3 MB and has 133 files and 63 folders.

When I had a look at the Environment Variables window and chose TMP the value is "%USERPROFILE%AppDataLocalTemp" which according to my limited understanding is the equivalent to C:UsersRossAppDataLocalTemp.

So, what I am wondering is am I supposed to totally clear out this directory? I am not too keen on doing this because I don't want to stuff my PC up.

SQL 2012 :: Profiler Event For Bulk Load Requests?

Jan 27, 2015

For Bulk Load requests in SQL server, Are there any specific profiler event? Like the one we have for RPC RPC:Starting and for Batch Requests, we have SQL:BatchStarting.

Are Bulk Load requests that are being monitored through Profiler captured as SQL:Batch... events at the backend?

Are there any new features added in 2012 or 2014 to identify a Bulk request submitted through bcp.exe utility or any other sqlbulkcopy program?

We have killed a job which is now in KILLEDROLL BACK state. Job activity monitor is not showing any running jobs but I can see the SPID of that job. When tried to kill again its giving the message ‘command completed successfully‘, not able to get the percentage or time for the roll back to complete.

Another DBA tried to create a snapshot and it was stuck and I believe it was because of this ROLLBACK as both were using same Database.

SQL 2012 :: Is Profiler Reads Column Incorrect For Parallel Plans

Aug 19, 2015

Is the SQL Server Profiler Reads Column Incorrect For Parallel Plans?

I often use profiler as one tool to identify bad plans. The reads column gives me a good indication of excessive IO to dig into and correct if necessary. I often use it with Showplan so I can see what a query does, replicate it and fix it.

However I have just lost some faith in it. I am looking at a poorly performing query joining five tables. A parallel plan has been generated and one table is being scanned (in parallel) due to a missing index. This table had in excess of 4 million rows in it. The rest hitd indexes well. However the entire query generates ONLY 12 READS.

Once corrected, a single processor plan is used. This looks really efficient and uses 120 reads. That looks the right figure to me.

Does the profiler only display one thread of a parallel plan perhaps? Or something else?

SQL 2012 :: Why Are Databases Showing Up In Newly Created Instance

Sep 18, 2015

Why are the user databases that were created in the MSSQLSERVER default instance showing up in the newly created ALPHAONE instance? I'm successfully logging into the alphaone database as it shows as "DASAlphaOne,1xxxPport) at the top of the treeview in ssms. I'm logging in as sa and can edit anything.

The issue here is that all the user databases are shown and can even be edited. I created this instance in an effort to hide databases from whoever is not supposed to see.I was expecting a clean instance with only the system databases..Is there something that can be set to keep each instance's databases private into itself?

SQL Server 2012 :: RAISERROR Not Showing Custom Message In Job History

Works great, except for some reason my messages are not making it into the log. It is appending the SQLSTATE, and a default error instead of anything that I'm putting into RAISERROR.

SQL 2012 :: AlwaysOn High Availability Group Showing All Databases

Apr 28, 2014

I came across an issue while migrating from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012 and using AlwaysOn Group. For some strange reason, when ever i connect to the Listener name for each AlwaysOn group, it list all the databases which is on the SQL instance, so i would be able to see databases that is not part of that Availability Group. I am not using default port, so have to put the port after the Name to connect and both Instance and Listener are using different port.
Testing the fail over works fine too, when i perform a manual failover, i can connect to any of the databases in the group from my application with no problem.

Considering that the Listener Port is different to the port which the instance is using?

SQL 2012 :: Log Shipping - Secondary Database Path Showing Wrong Location?

Mar 17, 2014

I've configured log shipping to use for DR purposes. I'm concerned that the physical location of the secondary is mis-reported by SQL Server Management Studio.

Viewing the secondary location (with Studio DB_name Properties Files) shows the path of the primary DB (I expected it to show the path of the secondary).

This SQL command shows the correct/actual paths of both primary and secondary DB's when run on their host servers.

SELECT name, physical_name AS CurrentLocation, state_desc FROM sys.master_files

Is this just cosmetic?

Here is an Example of how the Studio shows the incorrect path for the secondary.

Example:

(Primary) servername=prodSrv, DBname=aquaDB, Actual_Path=G:aquaDB, SQL-studio-Properties-Path=G:AquaDB, sys.master_files Path=G:AquaDB,

Log shipped to

(Secondary / Read Only) servername=DRSrv, DBname=aquaDB, Actual Path=F:aquaDR, SQL-studio-Properties-Path=G:AquaDB(WRONG), sys.master_files Path=F:aquaDR

Deadlocks

Mar 17, 2005

Our system is reasonably complex with a lot of non-trivial stored procedures. As the load on our DB increased we're now getting more and more deadlocks (10 per day or so from about a million stored proc executions).

We try to avoid transactions where we can, and we do attempt to optimse stored procs to steer clear of deadlock conditions, but with the sheer number of stored procedures we can't possibly avoid all deadlock conditions.

One solution I'm considering is to re-run stored procs that failed because of a deadlock. In the .net code we'll run the stored proc, check for a deadlock error and if one happened, wait 100ms and try again.

What do you guys think?

Deadlocks

Aug 13, 2002

Hi,

we have a production inviremont that is running for about 10 months. Since a couple of weeks we are having problems with "Deadlocks".

This cant be due to an increase in data size on the tables that are having the issues because these are cleaned in the same transaction that populates them.

These tables are used to store temporary data that the production system needs to calculate the correct price for any given order. This transaction takes between 0.5 to 1 second to commit.

We are running on a dual processor machine with 1 Gb of RAM with SQL Server 7 - sp 3, Windows NT 4 sp 6, Microsoft Transaction Server.

In all our queries and stored procedures we use the optimizer hints (nolock) for select statements and (rowlock) for updates or deletes.

Any help and/or suggestions would be appriciated.

Deadlocks

Dec 17, 1998

Is there any way to totally avoid deadlocks. In some critical applications
we have removed transactions entirely, counting on other means to maintain
database consistency. We still get deadlocks in this area. These are mainly
inserts, and the only thing I can think is that updates to the indexes are
causing multiple page locks which result in deadlocks. Is this true?

Will deadlocks be eliminated in 7.0 with row level locking for this situation?
Or will index page splits still cause a possibility of deadlock contention?

Thanks!

DeadLocks

Mar 5, 2001

Hi ,

I have a problem with a SP in 6.5. When i try to run a Stored Proc which is a simple select statement dumped into a temp table in a particular database, I lock other users who are tring to log into other databases some in tempdb database. When i try to kill the process the rollback takes almost 45 mins or so..till then no one can log on to the server.

The SP works fine when no one is logged into the Great Plains server. One more thing i observed is that, the SP when run results on a deadlock only when the owner is a user. If the owner is DBO it works fine.

Can anybody throw some light on this.

Thanks in Advance

Could a lack of memory be at the origin of the problem ? Which counters in perfmon are significant for memory lack ?

Could the index fill factor could be at the origin of the problem ? At time, it is at 90 percent.

Thanks for any help.

Deadlocks (I Think)

Feb 16, 2004

Hi folks,

I have an application built on top of a questionable DB design which requires overcomplicated selects. The application is experiencing deadlocks regularly, in some cases with only one concurrent user.

I set the trace flag 1204 but am not seeing anything in the Error.log and I initiated a trace in profiler which does not seem to show any deadlock.
Despite having recreated the problem which show my browser hanging indefinitely. When I run the following queries:

SELECT spid, waittime, lastwaittype, waitresource
FROM master..sysprocesses
WHERE waittime > 10000
AND spid > 50

SELECT spid, cmd, status, loginame, open_tran, datediff(s, last_batch, getdate ()) AS [WaitTime(s)]
FROM master..sysprocesses p
WHERE open_tran > 0
AND spid > 50
AND datediff (s, last_batch, getdate ()) > 30
ANd EXISTS (SELECT * FROM master..syslockinfo l
WHERE req_spid = p.spid AND rsc_type <> 2)

I get:

respectively. Any help would be welcome.

Deadlocks

Sep 16, 2007

hi,

We have a SQL 2005 transaction database server that suddenly started to issue deadlock errors last week on most of the databases on that server and a lot of timeout errors. Before that, that database server performed very well and timeouts were minimal to zero. I am not sure what changed for it to have these performance problems.

The only major change we did was to convert several varchar columns to nvarchar in several tables (as part of internationalization initiatives). We did not modify the procs from varchar to nvarchar though but would be doing that phase by phase.

There is also one proc in which we used the snapshot isolation level of sql server 2005. These are only 2 major changes done within the past 2 weeks. Would these be the cause for these deadlocks and timeouts on our web-based application?

Any ideas?

Thx
Sri

Deadlocks, Why?

Jan 13, 2006

We have a problem with a table giving us deadlock issues and we can'tfigure out why.It's a table we write to fairly often perhaps 50 times a minute. Andalso do a select of 200 rows at a time from 4 servers every 5 minutes or so.We are only keeping 48 hours worth of rows in the table which averagesat 30000 a day on a busy day.This table has 1 PK and 2 FKs plus one TEXT column which does notparticipate in the WHERE clause.We are using binded variables.We have applied the latest patch to SQL2003 server running onWindows2003. The patch is supposed to resolve deadlock issues.Anyone have any advice on how to alleviate this problem.Thanks
