CXSYNC_PORT wait type in Azure Sql Database


I'm facing this issue intermittently now, where the query (called from stored Procedure) goes for CXSYNC_PORT wait type and continues to remain in that for longer time (sometimes 8hours in stretch). I had to kill the process and then rerun the procedure. This procedure is called every 2-hours from ADF pipeline.

What's the reason for this behavior and how do I fix the issue?


Solution

  • I searched a lot and there is not Microsoft documents talk about the wait type: CXSYNC_PORT. Others have asked the same question but still with no more details.

    Most suggestions are that ask the same problem in more forums. Or ask professional engineer for help, and they will deal with your problem separately and confidentially.

    Ask Azure support for details help: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-portal/supportability/how-to-create-azure-support-request

    And here's the same question which Microsoft engineer gave more details about the issue:
