BUG #: 57639(SQLBUG_70)
SYMPTOMS
SQL Server allows multiple connections, identified by their system process id (SPID), to enlist in the same Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) transaction. SQL Server limits active operations to a single SPID. Simultaneous operation attempts result in the following 3910 error message:
When the SPID attempts to engage (propagate) in the same transaction, the SPID can go to sleep and not be alerted by another thread.
