After wrestling with the download of CU1 (it took 5 tries to get it to download!), I got it installed in one of my VPCs and gave Jon's code a whirl. I forced a deadlock by creating two tables, locking them from separate transactions and then trying to select from the other table. See the code below:
– Connection 1:
CREATE TABLE t1 (c1 INT);
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1);
GO
BEGIN TRAN
UPDATE t1 SET c1 = 2;
GO
– Connection 2:
CREATE TABLE t2 (c1 INT);
INSERT INTO t2 VALUES (1);
GO
BEGIN TRAN
UPDATE t2 SET c1 = 2;
GO
– Connection 1:
SELECT * FROM t2;
GO
– Connection 2:
SELECT * FROM t1;
GO
And one of them will be killed by the deadlock monitor.
Msg 1205, Level 13, State 45, Line 1
Transaction (Process ID 57) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction.
Now running Jon's (slightly reformatted) code:
SELECT CAST (
    REPLACE (
        REPLACE (
            XEventData.XEvent.value ('(data/value)[1]', 'varchar(max)'),
            '<victim-list>', '<deadlock><victim-list>'),
        '<process-list>', '</victim-list><process-list>')
    AS XML) AS DeadlockGraph
FROM (SELECT CAST (target_data AS XML) AS TargetData
    FROM sys.dm_xe_session_targets st
    JOIN sys.dm_xe_sessions s ON s.address = st.event_session_address
    WHERE [name] = 'system_health') AS Data
CROSS APPLY TargetData.nodes ('//RingBufferTarget/event') AS XEventData (XEvent)
    WHERE XEventData.XEvent.value('@name', 'varchar(4000)') = 'xml_deadlock_report';
Gives the XML deadlock graph (which unfortunately can't be displayed graphically because the format differs from the Profiler/trace-flag output)
