\pard\li720 A deadlock is a situation in which two computer programs sharing the same resource are effectively preventing each other from accessing the resource, resulting in both programs ceasing to function. A deadlock can arise when two or more users wait for data locked by each other.\par
The oracle server automatically detects and resolves deadlocks by rolling back the statement that detected the deadlock. Deadlocks most often occur when transactions explicitly override the default locking of the oracle server. A deadlock situation is recorded in a trace file in the USER_DUMP_DEST directory. One has to monitor the trace files for deadlock errors to determine if there are problems with the application. The trace file contains the row IDs of the locking rows. \par
