Hi,
Please i want to disable lock escalation on a table.
Can somebody help me on how to do that?
thanks
I assume that you want to disable lock escalation on a standard table because it cannot be done using extensions. Can you give us more information about your situation? Have you analysed why you are getting locks?
i duplicated a standard table. ad i want to do it on that
This might help you. Please have a look.

Although it's possible to disable lock escalation in SQL Server, we don't recommended it. Instead, use the prevention strategies.
If you want to disable lock escalation:
Table level: You can disable lock escalation at the table level via ALTER TABLE mytable SET(LOCK_ESCALATION=DISABLE).
See ALTER TABLE (Transact-SQL) - SQL Server | Microsoft Learn To determine which table to target, examine the T-SQL queries.
If that's not possible, use Quickstart: Extended Events in SQL Server - SQL Server | Microsoft Learn, enable the lock_escalation event, and examine the object_id column.
Alternatively use the Lock:Escalation Event Class - SQL Server | Microsoft Learn and examine the column by using SQL Profiler.
Best Regards,
Hana
