I have a custom alert that runs daily, and the query takes about a minute. I noticed it was the victim of a deadlock recently, and I want to ensure that it will always be the victim. The target is SQL Server 2012.
Does DPA use a low priority session? Is there something I should do to ensure that my custom alert's query won't win in a future deadlock event?
There's little I can do to improve this particular query, and it's reading from a large table that can't be altered. I can't create new indexes on it; that would invalidate product support.
Thanks
