Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: ITL Deadlock Example?
Thanks for the replies (K,Jonathan,Anjo). I'm getting
deadlocks to occur but they're not producing the
deadlock graphs I was expecting to see.
I'm looking to reproduce the scenario that will generate the following kind of deadlock graph--where it looks like a self-deadlock:
---------Blocker(s)-------- ---
------Waiter(s)---------
Resource Name process session holds waits
process session holds waits
TX-00050032-00002143 22 23
X 22 23 S
session 23: DID 0001-0016-000017E7 session 23:
DID 0001-0016-000017E7
But, the deadlock graph that my testing is generating looks like:
---------Blocker(s)-------- ----
-----Waiter(s)---------
Resource Name process session holds waits
process session holds waits
TX-00030052-00001fb9 11 11
X 12 15 X
TX-00040058-000023ef 12 15
X 11 11 X
It is my understanding that the deadlock graph I am
trying to reproduce is caused by ITL shortage
deadlocks. I have verified, via
dbms_rowid.rowid_block_number(), that I am updating
rows in different blocks.
Thanks again.
