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
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,
Could anyone please tell me steps to recover the database from the suspect

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

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
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?
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.
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 RelatedAlrighty.... I'm a long time listener and a first time caller here.
I've been reading multiple topics dealing with my issue but none seem to really address what I'm doing.
We have 3 separate enviroments, Dev, QA, and Prod. Quite frequently we have a database that gets moved from our Dev Server to QA, or QA to Prod, or Prod to QA ect...
What we have been doing is when a database is moved, it holds all of the actual database logins, but when you look within the actual server logins there's nothing there (dealing w/ that specific database). So we then have to go first through all of our logins on the database write them down, then go one by one and create them on the server.
I'm wondering if there is a more simple way to be doing this to cut down on our administration time?
3/4 of our ID's on the database are all linked through our Domain using windows authentication. And since we keep all of our "application/local SQL ID's" enviromentally separate. (each ID XXX has its own ID for Dev, QA and Prod... XXXdev, XXXqa, and XXXprod) so we'll have to do those manually anyways, but I'm really hoping someone has a solution to this timely administration process!
Thanks for all of your help!

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,

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..
thanks in advance,

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... 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 '

Database 'MYUAT' cannot be opened - it has been marked SUSPECT by recovery. The SA can drop the database with DBCC.'
appeared.
Don't understand Y this occurred...
Thanks in advance for any help...

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.
How can I begin to troubleshoot the cause of this issue? Has anyone seen anything like this?
thanks,
Jeff
Why do i keep getting this error ?
