Example and Notes
Use this SQL Server example as a starting point for development, troubleshooting, reporting, or maintenance work. Review it against your schema, data volume, permissions, and SQL Server version before using it in production.
The builtin @@LOCKTIMEOUT function allows an application to set the maximum time that a statement waits on a blocked resource. When a statement has waited longer than the LOCK_TIMEOUT setting, the blocked statement is automatically canceled, and an error message is returned to the application. The code script below will show you how to use the @@LOCKTIMEOUT function. For more details on the @@LOCKTIMEOUT function
