I have a production database where there has been no change in T-SQL in the last 3 months. Also daily transactions (type as well as count) has not changed during this period.
Suddenly too many deadlocks have started appearing. Added lock hints to select and update statements, and the deadlocks vanished.
Is it possible that select and update statements have a default behaviour, if lock hints are not provided and these behaviour has changed due to installion of some service pack?
I have no way of finding out whether the user has installed any SP as the user does not record such activities.

Maybe there are 'suddenly' more concurrent sessions than before?


No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die.

You need to look on

1) Better Indexing Strategy
2) Check with performance counters for Memory,Disk,Processor Bottlenecks
3) Tweak in the code
