Database Marked Suspect ID5 And Could Not Recover. Any Quick Help Will Be Very Appreciated.
Nov 17, 2007
I have the MS SQL2000 database failed to recover at computer restart. Now the database is marked suspect. How can I manage to recover the data?
Thank you.
After the power failure my database was marked suspect. According to my associate we will execute SQL command sp_resetstatus. My question is what are the things we have to do first before we execute the command? We are using NT 4.
Usman Masood writes "we were using our database named db1. when suddenly it stopped working and upon checking it gave an error that db1 and db2 are marked as suspected. while we were only using db1,,,,what is the cause of this error?"
DBCC CHECKDB (A2PD,REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS) The above command was not executed as there was some long rollback was going from a user...
I stopped and re started the MSSQLSERVR service...
Then i found the follwing error..
how can i work with the database A2PD marked as suspect
Server: Msg 926, Level 14, State 1, Line 1 Database 'A2PD' cannot be opened. It has been marked SUSPECT by recovery. See the SQL Server errorlog for more information.
Hi,I restored my Windows XP system and discovered that I cannot access aMSDE DB that was saved in D: drive (I restored my primary partition inC). How can I restore it?Thanks a lot.
Hi there, I need urgent help regarding a database that has been marked as suspect. I need to get the data from the database!!
I have a copy of the structure of the database but I need to get cerain very recent data from the database. I have tried bcp and it doesn't work. The backup that I have won't sufice
If a database is marked as suspect, Will it recover?> And if so how long will it take. If it won't recover is there any other way of getting the data, Thanks in advance, Fin
I've my database, testdb, ended up in Suspect state. The SQL log shows " I/O error 38(Reached the end of the file.) detected during read at offset xxxxxxxxxx in file '<path> estdb_Data.MDF'" during recovery. I do not have backup to restore the database from. So to run DBCC CHECKDB, I tried to put the database in emergency(bypass recovery) mode using
update sysdatabases set status = 32768 where name = 'testdb'
DBCC CHECKDB showed some allocation and consistency errors and suggested "repair_allow_data_loss" as minimum repair level.
Now to run
DBCC CHECKDB('testdb', repair_allow_data_loss)
I've to put database in SINGLE USER mode. For that I started SQL server by command
sqlservr.exe -c -m
Now when I try to run DBCC CHECKDB with repair option it says "Attempt to BEGIN TRANSACTION in database 'testdb' failed because database is in BYPASS RECOVERY mode."
So it seems I need to change the status of database such that it will allow me to repair it. If I try to reset the status, the database again goes in Suspect state and it seems DBCC commands don't run on database in Suspect state. Does anybody know how to recover the database in this state? Is there any other way to repair it?
One of the database in our SQL Server 2000 environment is in the suspect status. We need to bring it back to the normal status.
The problem occurred because the disk on which the data file and log file for this database were placed ran out of space.
Pls note other databases in the same server are working fine. Later on more space was made available on this disk. We tried the following options but with no success.
1. Reset the status of database and restarted the SQL Server. After restarting the SQL Server, the database once again was showing the suspect status. 2. Used the same data and log file in another SQL Server and attached with the database in this another SQL Server. 3. Tried dbcc chkdb with repair_allow_data_loss.
Since the database is in suspect status, we are neither able to export the data nor able to back up the database.
Please suggest some options to recover the database from the suspect status. Also it would be great if we can get the commands, scripts to find if the data/log file is corrupt and a way to correct it (even with data loss is fine).
As I know the database should be restored from backup and logs reapplied. That’s the first and generally recommended approach any time a DB is suspect, whether it’s from log or data file corruption.But if I have no backups then we follow below steps ( after Googling I found these steps on most of the websites ):
1.EXEC sp_resetstatus ‘yourDBname’; 2.ALTER DATABASE yourDBname SET EMERGENCY 3.DBCC checkdb(’yourDBname’) 4.ALTER DATABASE yourDBname SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE 5.DBCC CheckDB (’yourDBname’, REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS) 6.ALTER DATABASE yourDBname SET MULTI_USER
Now my question is, 1. If after executing DBCC CHECKDB at 3rd step, it shows inconsistency.Then I will execute SET SINGLE USER WITH ROLLBACK & if after executing DBCC CHECKDB at 3rd step, no errors found. Then what will be the steps?
2. When we execute DBCC CHECKDB (' DBNAME ', REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS) how can we recover lost data during process.As far as I know some data will loss and if it will happen then business will get suffered.
3. Why run DBCC CHECKDB() WITH REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS if there are no consistency errors in the database?
Hi all, I have a big problem with a Database on SQL-Server7.0 running on windows 2000 advanced server. The msdb database is marked suspect. I have tried a few suggestions in the SQL BOL but no luck.
We have a new installation on Friday which was running fine. Unfortunately today, the msdb is marked suspect. Do I uninstall and reload SQL server or change the status. We only have a training data on the server presently. Does anybody has any other suggestions? Please help. Thanks for your assistance.
Hi I want to suspect database stop server first I try to rename C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatamsdbdata.mdf to msdbdata.sav and then start the server use command to check: SELECT status & 256 FROM master.dbo.sysdatabases WHERE name = database_name if the result is 256,it means the msdb is suspect,but the result is 0,it same as the normal status do you know how to set database suspect with this way, or do you know other way to suspect databse. absolutely,I could re-back my server noraml with your way Thanks

I canceled a restore job, and now the database is marked (Loading). When I go to propertied it tells me "database can't be opened, it's in a middle of a restore" Yet from a Query window I can connect and run queries against that database. Should I just wait until it finishes "Loading" or should I re-start the server? Thanks
I have a 3GB DB that I was running an update script on. The sript failed and ran out of transaction log space. I expanded it and stopped and restarted SQL. The user DB is now marked as recovering. How long should I wait for it to recover? I don't want to have to restore again and start all over with my script. Please help.
i have a scheduled job which shrinks the database every day once at 12 am
today the job got failed
In the view Job history its showing the below contents ------------------------------------------------------- Database 'ecatalog' is already open and can only have one user at a time. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 924) DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact your system administrator. [SQLSTATE 01000] (Message 2528). The step failed.
And in Application Log of event viewer its showing the below contents ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The description for Event ID ( 208 ) in Source ( SQLServerAgent$ABCSQL ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. The following information is part of the event: Shrink Database - ecatalog, 0xA0C4F8157A744244A61A4ECABE8C6056, Failed, 4/19/2004 12:00:03 AM, The job failed. The Job was invoked by Schedule 27 (Shrink Database - ecatalog). The last step to run was step 1 (Shrink Database - ecatalog)..
I ran the job manually it worked fine
but now when i go and see the database ecatalog in my Enterprise Manager it is showing ecatalog(Single User) What is the meaning of this, will this make any problem to my database
After I restore a database with SQL the database I cannot access it. However, after restoring using Enterprise Manager I do not have the same problem. The message I get is:
Database 'les_test' cannot be opened. It is in the middle of a restore.
The code I am trying to use for the restore is:
RESTORE DATABASE les_test FROM DISK = 'c:MSSQL7BACKUPiztrobeta_db_200012011201.BAK' WITH NORECOVERY, REPLACE, MOVE 'biztrobeta_PRI' TO 'c:mssql7DATAiztrobeta_PRI.ndf', MOVE 'biztrobeta_FGE_Dat1' TO 'c:mssql7DATAiztrobeta_FGE_Dat1.ndf', MOVE 'biztrobeta_FGX_Idx1 ' TO 'c:mssql7DATAiztrobeta_FGX_Idx1.ndf', MOVE 'biztrobeta_LOG' TO 'c:mssql7Dataiztrobeta_LOG.ldf' GO
I tried changing the status in the master..sysdatabases tables, but the restored database was still not accessible. I tried to do this using the following statment:
UPDATE sysdatabases SET STATUS = 4194316 WHERE name = 'les_test' GO
I created the db with the attached script and I am able to access ituntil I reboot the server. I've tried enabling flag 1807 via the SQLserver service and the startup parameters of the instance. In allcases the database always come up suspect after a reboot. There wasone instance where I was able to recover, but I am not sure how thathappened.Does anyone have an idea of how I can reboot the server without thedatabase becomming suspect?USE MASTERGODBCC TRACEON(1807)GO--DBCC TRACEOFF(1807)--DBCC TRACESTATUS(1807)GOCREATE DATABASE ReadyNAS ON( NAME = ReadyNAS_Data,FILENAME = '\NAS1NASDiskSQL ServerReadyNASReadyNAS_Data.mdf',SIZE = 100MB,MAXSIZE = 20GB,FILEGROWTH = 20MB)LOG ON ( NAME = ReadyNAS_Log,FILENAME = '\NAS1NASDiskSQL ServerReadyNASReadyNAS_Log.ldf',SIZE = 20MB,MAXSIZE = 100MB,FILEGROWTH = 10MB)
My database is marked as suspectI am using SQL Server 2000,I ran the command sp_resetstatus it executes succesfully. but still the database is in suspect state.can any one tell me how i recover my data.thanks in advance
Im running SQL 7.0 with a large heavily used 4Gb database. After a while the database is marked suspect. What can be the cause to this ? Please email me and I can send you additional information about hardware and the system.
I really need help on this, one of my databases is marked suspect. I did tried to execute this command below (scripts):
use master go sp_configure 'allow updates',1 go reconfigure with override go update sysdatabases set status=4 where name='security' go sp_configure 'allow updates',0 go reconfigure with override go
and it release the suspect from the 'Security' database, but it Won't let me access the table,data or nothing. The worse thing is when I stop & start the server again, the database marked suspect again.
Could anybody out the help me on this. Thank in advance, Vu
I am using SQL server 6.5 sp3 and NT 4.0 sp4. My SMS database has been marked suspect. I do not have a backup. I have read several articles about trying to us sp_resetstatus. I can not find this sp on my server. When I try the following: UPDATE master..sysdatabases status=256 WHERE name = ('sms')
I get the following back: Ad-hoc updates to system catalog not enabled. System Adminstrator must recongifure system to allow this.
I have searched Microsoft KB and everywhere I can think of. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. I even tried reapplying sp3 and rebooting...this did not help either. Can someone please tell me how to change the status back to normal.....I think this is a it will take..
I have the original dat files ( 2 seperate log / data) of a database. I have created new devices (same size as originals) and a new database. I replace the new dat files with the originals and the database always comes up as a suspect. I have done this with the other 7 databases on my server and none have similar problems. This database was created different then others using new database and new devices routine rather than creating the devices first. Any Ideas?
Hi... I have this problem with my database (dunno how this thing happen). Today, 2 of my databases have been marked as 'suspect' (grey color in SQL Enterprise Manager). In ISQL, when I try 2 connect 2 the database (use), the message ' Msg 926, Level 14, State 1 Database 'MYUAT' cannot be opened - it has been marked SUSPECT by recovery. The SA can drop the database with DBCC.' appeared.
We recently had some kind of error on one of the server's hard drives. The network guys, reinintialized (or something) and were able to bring everything back. However, two of my databases now is "Suspect" and can't be used. Both the MDF & LDF exist, and there are no indications of actual data loss. What can I do with a "suspect" database ? SQL 2K
What should I do to recover these two databases? Thank you for all your suggestions.
I could not open my database.It says its Suspect and could not open and not displaying any of the objects What should be the reason and what is steps i can do make it up and running.
One of my prodn databases went into suspect mode today.. I was able to recover it. The tech support guyz had rebooted the server couple of times (out of ignorance) cos they thought if wud fix it. I lost the sql errpor log file which had the error details as to why db when into suspect....so my questions are..
1. Probable reasons why db when into suspect mode. 2. Any other way to find out about the error details. 3. When I ran dbcc checkdb with repair_rebuild option for some tables it gave error
"Parent node for page (1:13075) was not encountered"
How can i resolve the consistency errors. Is DBCC CHECKTABLE sufficient.???
We have an SQL Server 2000 DB server with several databases on it. Frequently, one of the DBs will have a state of "Suspect." This appears to occur after our 3rd party backup software runs a full backup on the weekends.
How can I begin to troubleshoot the cause of this issue? Has anyone seen anything like this?
