Hi experts,
I was trying to restore a "mdf" (MSDE) database for a HP OpenView product, unfortunately at the initial state of restoration, i got the following error messages:
Database 'openview' cannot be opened. It has been marked SUSPECT by recovery.
See the SQL Server errorlog for more information.
Any valuable suggestions on how to set/change the current "SUSPECT" mode so that the 'openview' database can be opened?
Many thanks,
Cheng
how to put sql server database in suspect mode intensely and  get it out from suspect mode to normal mode.
  i am using SQL server 2008 R2
can anyone tell me what would casuse this error:
2001-09-12 21:21:01.11 kernel udopen: Operating system error 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.) during the creation/opening of physical device C:MSSQL7dataReporting.mdf.
2001-09-12 21:21:01.11 kernel FCB::Open failed: Could not open device C:MSSQL7dataReporting.mdf for virtual device number (VDN) 1.
What other things would cause the Reporting.mdf to be locked so the SQL server could not open it?
I have a database in suspect mode. There is no backup of this database.
I've followed the troubleshooting and it isn't working out.
There are 3 steps:
1. execute sp_resetstatus
2. use alter database to add data file or log file to the database
3. stop and restart SQL Server
4. free disk space and rerun recovery
I've tried to make it, but the step # 2 haven't worked.
Then I tried step 3, however the database is still in suspect mode.
What should I do?
Is there something I am missing?
Thanks,

Hi
my database went into suspect mode. i tried to reset the status database by "sp_resetstatus abc". It is giving the message
"Prior to updating sysdatabases entry for database 'cr2db', mode = 0 and status = 260 (status suspect_bit = 256).
For row in sysdatabases for database 'cr2db', the status bit 256 was forced off and mode was forced to 0.
Warning: You must recover this database prior to access."
please let me if you have any solution to this problem.
thank you in advance

Hi,
I have mssql 2005 installed and i see that MSDB database is marked as suspect. I almost tried all the steps which are submitted in the forums.
1) I shut down the server, navigating to the directory 'd:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBinn' and doing the following: start sqlservr.exe -c -T3608
2) renamed the damaged msdb files (msdbdata.mdf and msdblog.ldf in the 'd:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData' directory)
3) Run the instmsdb.sql script in the 'd:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLInstall' directory
--x---
When I executed third step it returned me below error:
Msg 926, Level 14, State 1, Line 63
Database 'msdb' cannot be opened. It has been marked SUSPECT by recovery. See the SQL Server errorlog for more information.
Please advice me.
Hi,
Could anyone please tell me steps to recover the database from the suspect
mode. The backup I got is very old. Can it be recovered without the backup.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
When i tried to restore database from the Network m/c ...upto 60% of the restoration process went well,But after that i got message saying that
" Communication link failure " then database went in to LOAD/SUSPECT mode,
This happend in Active/Active Cluster environment and at the same point of time Fail over occured and resources moved to other node.
i tried by running SP_RESETSTATUS stored procedure to change the status of the Database ,But no use...
Then i deleted the Database and recreated and restored.. because it was a test server...BUT if it happens in Production what to do?????.....
Is there anyway to over come such situations...
Thanks in advance

Mu MSDB database is in suspect mode. Anyone have any info to help get it out. It tells me that it cannot find the path specified for the backups, yet the path exists and there is more than enough disk space even though it says that there is not? I am confused. First time getting this error and doesn't make sense why.
Thanks!

In SQL 2005 when a database is in suspect mode there is no obvious way to tell (via SSMS). In SQL 2000 the word "suspect" was displayed (via Enterprise Manager) next to the database, and the respective database icon was grayed out. Why was this behavior changed for SQL 2005? From a disaster recovery standpoint, it is very important to see immediately if a database is in suspect mode.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIn the work I came up against a situation when the working database at the end of day went to the Suspect Mode.And the archive was in many hours before. To transfer it in normal mode, until isn't made repaired base it was impossible. DBCC checkdb also refused to run because the database is in this mode.

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,Â
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?
I Want to test for Automatic switch between primary and secondary.
How do i do it ?
or
I need this for some purpose : How to set suspect mode for a database ?
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
One of my database (name XYZ) shows suspect status in EM but when i try to dig further by running below query i get only "OK" ( see query)
SELECT [name],status, case status when (status & 32) then 'Loading'
when (status & 32) then 'Loading'
when (status & 64) then 'Pre Recovery'
when (status & 128) then 'Recovering'
when (status & 256) then 'Not recoverd'
when (status & 512) then ' Offline'
when (status & 1024) then ' Single user'
when (status & 1024) then ' Read only'
when (status & 32768) then ' Emergency Mode' else 'OK' end as status
FROM master.dbo.sysdatabases
WHERE [name] NOT IN ('distribution', 'tempdb', 'model','Pubs','Northwind')
also i run this
select * from sysdatabases where databaseproperty(name,N'IsSuspect') <> 1
and here also i get all the database including "XYZ"...i guess if "XYZ" is suspect the resultset should not be including "XYZ"
Why if the EM shows suspect status FOR "XYZ" DATABASE it should come up when i check status column in sysdatabases table?
Durning install I selected Window's Authentication only, but now it seems we may need to use a Mixed Mode with an SA account etc... is there anyway to switch SQL 2005 to use Mixed Mode after the fact?

Hello,everyone!!
There is a query which when executed in the grid mode(ctrl+d) takes approx 0.02 seconds(about 21,000
rows) But when I execute in the text mode, it takes about 0.40 seconds!!
Why is this difference?
Also, when the records from this table are read from a VB application, they are equally slow (as in the text mode!)
Why is it so slow on the text mode & relatively faster in the grid mode?
Has anyone got any idea on ‘Firehose’ style cursor ?(which may speed up access of data in the VB application)

Recently I read such statments 'When SQL Server is run in "lightweight pooling" mode (fiber mode) and the DTC service is started, unexpected behavior may occur.'

Hi,
Currently, our Report Builder is running on Local Intranet mode. I'm investigating what the security implications are in changing it to Internet mode. However, I've not been able to find any documentation on this.
Does anyone know of any documentation that addresses this issue or have experience that they can share with changing Report Builder security zone from Intranet mode to Internet mode?
Thanks very much.
Hi folks,
I have a SQL 2005 OTC. CTP version running on Windows 2003 server.
I would like to find out how the SQL server option changed to Windows Authentication mode from Mixed mode over the weekend. From the SQL log, I don't see when it changed. I would like to see Date/Time and client IP. If I can see User ID (windows) that would be great. Where I can find these info in SQL server?
Thank you in advance...

Hello,
I'm not sure if it's the setup I did wrong, but I can't seem to get my
text datatype in my database to store more than 900 characters.
I'm trying to setup a news database for my website, which will populate
the information into a datagrid. To test, I manually added a news
item in the database through the visual studio 2003 gui. I
immediately noticed a problem as the I was getting an error after a
long news item saying:
"The value you entered is not consistent with the data type or length of the column, or over grid buffer limit."
I couldn't find anthing to set the buffer limit and the datatype is
"text" filled with simple text in the column. As a further test,
I
simply entered 12334567890123... up to 900 characters and still
recevied the error.
I would appreciate someone leading me in the right direction on this one.
Thanks a lot.
I am trying to change the computer name of a machine running MSDE but I get an error when SQL Server starts. With regular SQL when I change the name of a computer I re-run setup and setup fixes this problem. MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem.
My question is "How do I change the name of a computer running MSDE with out reinstalling MSDE"
We currently have the problem, that all our machines are produced with the
same name and afterwards the name is changed. So we have the problem that
the checksum key for the MSDE isn't valid anymore. As MSDE can only be installed
from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem. Does anyone
know a solution for this problem ?? A program recalculating the cheksum ??

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this this question but I'll give it a shot.
The only db development that I have ever done is in MS Access. I have a project at work that is being accomplished in VB and I need a db engine to use as the back end. Visual studio came with a copy of MSDE. Is this tool worth using or should I invest in mySQL? Are there any advantages to using MSDE over mySQL?
Hi all,

Thanx in advance

I had a database (give it a name A) that was marked suspect. I ran the following query
use master
go
sp_resetstatus <db_name>
I then stopped and restarted SQL Server. This fixed the problem for database A but I got two more that were suspect. After running the same query for both B & C, C got fixed but I still cannot fix B. My question is why did fixing problem A cause a problem for DB B & C?
I tried running the following query on B after the first one failed.
Update sysdatabases set status = -32768 where name='B'
This gave me the following error: Ad hoc updates to system catalogs are not enabled. The system administrator must reconfigure SQL Server to allow this.
Could somebody please help me solve this problem?
