On SQL Database Basic, S0, and S1 service objectives, and for databases in elastic pools, the server admin account, the Microsoft Entra admin account, or membership in the ##MS_ServerStateReader## server role is required. On all other SQL Database service objectives, either the VIEW DATABASE STATE permission on the database, or membership in the ##MS_ServerStateReader## server role is required.
Requires VIEW SERVER PERFORMANCE STATE permission on the server.
The sys.dm_tran_aborted_transactions DMV shows all aborted transactions in the [!INCLUDE ssDE] instance. The nest_aborted column indicates that the transaction has been committed or is active, but there are portions (savepoints or nested transactions) that aborted. This can block the PVS cleanup process while the transaction remains active. For more information, see Monitor and troubleshoot accelerated database recovery.
Row versions created by unresolved, aborted transactions are removed by persistent version store (PVS) cleanup.
