SQL/MP Measurement Models
LOCK-WAITS stores the number of times a call to the disk process waited on
locked data.
TIMEOUTS stores the number of timeouts issued on the file. If the number is
greater than zero, the file’s timeout value might be too low, thereby defining an
insufficient time.
ESCALATIONS stores the number of times a record lock was escalated to a file
(table) lock.
