I happen to be using SQL Server 2019 CU16 but the details I’ll describe haven’t materially changed since partition level lock escalation was added to SQL Server 2008. The SQL Server lock manager keeps track of the number of locks held by the current transaction. Testing environment. Well, almost. The sqlmin!lck_lockInternal

I was a bit perplexed by this issue, since the system was certainly no slouch — plenty of cores, 3TB of memory, and XtremIO storage. How It Works: When is the FlushCache message added to SQL Server Error Log?

Achieving minimal logging using INSERT.SELECT into an empty clustered index target is not quite as simple as described in the Data Performance Loading Guide. The Data Loading Performance Guide contains a high-level summary of the conditions required for minimal logging into clustered tables: This post is concerned with the top row only.
