Can anyone help me to recreate the .NDF file if it was lost and not restorable? I have a stored procedure written that will then help me rebuild all indexes on all tables, but I can't seem to figure out how to create the index file again so I can run it. I have tried index files from other databases to no avail. There is no backup to go to.
View 10 RepliesMy question has to do with the ability to recover a suspect database in the event that the transaction log device file becomes corrupt or is deleted.
Specifically, consider the case where a user database has it's data device on one hard disk and the log device file on a 2nd hard disk. The database is set to truncate log on checkpoint.
If the disk fails on which the log device file resides, the user database will be marked as suspect. Assume this disk is replaced and rebuilt from a tape backup, including the log device file (which was backed up to tape during off hours.)
Will SQL Server have any problems with this? Will database recovery have any problems with this (assuming the restored transaction log was empty)? Any other issues?
Thanks in advance!
Basically I've been using Visual Studio 2005 for a few weeks now moving a Pocket PC project from 2003 to 2005. When I hit the Start Debugging Button every time until today the project would rebuild and deploy to my pocket PC allowing me to debug etc but now I get
The remote connection to the device has been lost.
Please verify the device conection and restart debugging.
I used to get this problem in VS2003 sometimes and just like the numerous posts on different sites that I've looked at the problem eventually goes away and I'm none the wiser. One guy said that he found that if he went to bed the problem was resolved when he came back!
My PDA running Windows 2003 2nd Edition is directly connected to my PC via a USB port. I've rebooted my PC and done a soft reset on the PDA but it didn't help. I'm using ActiveSync 4.1.
Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?
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
Hi.
I've following problem:
- Customer played with his logical drives in a CPQ smart array
- He played too much: he lost the drive with the LDF-File
- Now the SQL-Server is in a kind of wired mode; you can
start and stop it, but you cannot connect to (neiter 'sa' nor
any other user available before)
In fact the mode is not wired: what shall he do other when
most important file is missing... :o
- The problem for me now is:
> How can I get the Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzer
up and running again to start a restore?
PS: The restore is to be done from a tape-library running
Veritas Backup Exec + SQL-Agent
PPS: Error-log says (what I already know):
2005-10-04 17:18:02.69 spid11 Device activation error. The physical file name 'H:DEVLOG1DEVLOG1.ldf' may be incorrect.
Thanks in advance for assistance.

Server Error in '/menu' Application.
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. SQLExpress database file auto-creation error:
The connection string specifies a local Sql Server Express instance using a database location within the applications App_Data directory. The provider attempted to automatically create the application services database because the provider determined that the database does not exist. The following configuration requirements are necessary to successfully check for existence of the application services database and automatically create the application services database:
If the applications App_Data directory does not already exist, the web server account must have read and write access to the applications directory. This is necessary because the web server account will automatically create the App_Data directory if it does not already exist.
If the applications App_Data directory already exists, the web server account only requires read and write access to the applications App_Data directory. This is necessary because the web server account will attempt to verify that the Sql Server Express database already exists within the applications App_Data directory. Revoking read access on the App_Data directory from the web server account will prevent the provider from correctly determining if the Sql Server Express database already exists. This will cause an error when the provider attempts to create a duplicate of an already existing database. Write access is required because the web server accounts credentials are used when creating the new database.
Sql Server Express must be installed on the machine.
The process identity for the web server account must have a local user profile. See the readme document for details on how to create a local user profile for both machine and domain accounts.

Is there any advantage to putting the index device on a separate drive from the data & log
devices? Or is this even possible with w2k?
Hi,
I have a table published on the SQL2K Merger Replication publisher. But when I add an index to the table it's not replicated to the device. I have checked the snapshot folder and the newly added index is already in the .dri file. Any ideas?
Cheers,
Justin

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:

I have searched Microsoft KB and everywhere I can think of. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.

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?
Thanks in Advance.

Hi all,
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.
Thanks

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.

thanks,
Jeff

Hi all,
I have a suspect database caused by a disk error on a Raid5 disk. I'm a bit of a novice on SQL and am using SQL 2005. I have tried the following and can't get the database status to reset which means the DBCC checkdb command does not run. The client I am fixing this for has no backup of the data at all.
USE master
GO
sp_configure 'allow updates', 1
GO
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
GO
EXEC sp_resetstatus 'nhd2007';
GO
sp_configure 'allow updates', 0
GO
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
GO
DBCC checkdb ('nhd2007',NOINDEX);
GO
I get the following error back:-
Configuration option 'allow updates' changed from 0 to 1. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.
The suspect flag on the database "nhd2007" is already reset.
Configuration option 'allow updates' changed from 1 to 0. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.
Msg 926, Level 14, State 1, Line 3
Database 'nhd2007' cannot be opened. It has been marked SUSPECT by recovery. See the SQL Server errorlog for more information.
The error in the SQL Log which is causing all the problems is:-
Message
SQL Server detected a logical consistency-based I/O error: incorrect pageid (expected 1:3425329; actual 25600:1744858624). It occurred during a read of page (1:3425329) in database ID 24 at offset 0x00000688862000 in file 'E:hd2007hd2007.mdf'. Additional messages in the SQL Server error log or system event log may provide more detail. This is a severe error condition that threatens database integrity and must be corrected immediately. Complete a full database consistency check (DBCC CHECKDB). This error can be caused by many factors; for more information, see SQL Server Books Online.
Any advice on what I can do to get some access to the data would be great.
Thanks
Okay, so i have a tabase named "TEST" that i set up, everything in it is for a website i've been designing slowly for the last month, i come in today, and notice the database is marked suspect. look at the log and i see all of this:

what can i do?
