Lock:Timeout (timeout > 0) Event Class

  • Article

Applies to: SQL Server

The Lock:Timeout (timeout > 0) event class indicates that a request for a lock on a resource, such as a page, has timed out because another transaction is holding a blocking lock on the required resource. This event class behaves the same as the Lock:Timeout event class, except it does not include any events where the timeout value is 0.

Include the Lock:Timeout (timeout > 0) event class in traces where you are using lock probes or other processes that have timeout values of zero. This allows you to see where actual time-outs are occurring without seeing time-out values of zero.

Lock:Timeout (timeout > 0) Event Class Data Columns
