I turned on trace flags 1222 and 1204. I got a lot of information about deadlocks but there seems to be missing information.
When it says "Wait-for graph" is it producing a graph somewhere or is the informatrion that follows the "graph"?
I seem to be having a problem reading information due to casting errors. I don't understand why.
Does this section of my log make sense to anyone?
Thanks.
