You can use the History Browser to view past performance and go back to the point in time to view the sessions involved with the blocking alerts you receive.

Navigate through the blocking tree to find sessions that cause blocks, and then either trace sessions to find out what is causing the blocks or stop the session to have it removed. To trace a blocked session or lead blocker select it from the list and click Trace Session. To stop a blocked session, or lead blocker, select it from the list , and click Kill Session
