MORE INFORMATION

Error 17883 is introduced in SQL Server 2000 SP3. The following information is the text of error 17883:

Error: 17883 - The Scheduler %1!ld! appears to be hung. SPID %2!ld!, ECID %3! ld!, UMS Context 0x%4!p!

In SQL Server 2000 build 8.00.765, the message text has been modified and is now more descriptive. The following information is the modified text of error 17883:

Error: 17883 - Process %1!ld!:%2!ld! (%3!lx!) UMS Context 0x%4!p! appears to be non-yielding on Scheduler %5!ld!

Note In SQL Server 2000 build 8.00.765, the Sqlevn70.dll file is not in sync with the Sqlservr.exe file. Therefore, error17883 reflects the earlier format.
