Answer / udhaya
Shared (S) Used for operations that do not change or update
data (read-only operations), such as a SELECT statement.
Update (U) Used on resources that can be updated. Prevents
a common form of deadlock that occurs when multiple
sessions are reading, locking, and potentially updating
resources later.
Exclusive (X) Used for data-modification operations, such
as INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE. Ensures that multiple updates
cannot be made to the same resource at the same time.
Intent Used to establish a lock hierarchy. The types of
intent locks are: intent shared (IS), intent exclusive
(IX), and shared with intent exclusive (SIX).
Schema Used when an operation dependent on the schema of a
table is executing. The types of schema locks are: schema
modification (Sch-M) and schema stability (Sch-S).
Bulk Update (BU) Used when bulk-copying data into a table
and the TABLOCK hint is specified
