The blocking that occurred happened yesterday was from a Statement that was Deleting from a Table using a Subquery.
This query was placing Exclusive Table Locks.
on two tables.
The Transaction Log was growing and since it did not seem that the Database was Rolling Back, 0%, I made an assumption that it was stuck. Did I make an incorrect assumption?
I had them using locking hints and no more blocking.
After I went through restarting the Service and recovery.
I set the Database Offline but when I attempted to bring it back online and I got an error, something to the effect that the database did not exist or I did not have permissions.
I wonder if I had included with Rollback Immediate I could have avoided this problem?
The Database was stuck offline. I checked the event viewer and I did not see any entries that indicated that the Database was in Recovery.
So I bounced the Service again and shortly after I started seeing entries in the Event Log that the Database was recovering.
