blocked  and blocker  spid and details

,

2 steps:

step 1 => create   a table in master database called BlockCheck

step 2 =>  create the stored procedure in master  called  BLOCK_CHECK @database_name varchar(20)

What SP  does:
-    it gets the  spid that is blocked  + info about it (like what it does  at the moment  it is blocked)
-    it gets the spid  that  acts as a blocker for the first spid and its info.
-    calculates the amount of time in   WAITTIME field - the span of time that the  first spid was blocked
-    gets  login,APP name and  time at which the blocked process was last running

I run this SP for  checking  new code; I run it in life system when I know I have  big loads and they hit similar tables

to run it do:

EXEC BLOCK_CHECK @tour_database_name


use master

 /*create table in master database*/

if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[BlockCheck]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1)
drop table [dbo].[BlockCheck]
GO
