SQL 2005 - Get Deadlock information

  • IN sql 2005, I use DMV to get the number of deadlocks per sec. How can i get those deadlock's details? I havnt enabled the Traces or run profiler. These deadlocks already happend and i suspect if we could get the necessray details

  • There's no way to get historical deadlocks in SQL 2005 unless you already had some traceflag or trace on at the time.

    To catch future deadlocks, turn traceflag 1222 on, the deadlock graph will then be written to the error log.
