Viewing the Versioning Type of a Transaction

Use the sp_iqtransaction stored procedure to view the versioning type (either table-level or row-level) of each active transaction.

  1. Run sp_iqtransaction.
  2. Examine the VersioningType column.
    VersioningType Description
    Row-level The transaction uses row-level versioning. Row-level versioning enables concurrent writer access and row-level locking for RLV-enabled tables.
    Table-level The transaction uses table-level versioning. Table-level versioning enables single-writer access and table-level locking.
