The problem is, that this user database only has one data file and file_id 2 is the log file.I understand that the event_type shows checksum and torn page error but in the log file? DBCC CHECKDB shows no errors and the database is part of an AOAG in synchronized state.We have log backups in every 15 minutes.
I'm running Win2000/SQL2000 on a Compaq CL380 Cluster Server. After a powerdown to do a physical move, the MSDB is now marked SUSPECT. I have tried the stored procedure SP_RESETSTATUS, a DBCC consistency check, and also have restored the database from backup. The database still shows MSDB is suspect. What can I do? We can't get a good backup as long as it is still this way as it depends on the SQL Agent.
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.
Dear Experts, in one of our servers, the MSDB database is in suspect mode, and i've used the command sp_resetstatus and i restarted the service also but still it is in suspect mode.
how can i change that to normal state? it is asking to check the errorlog.

My msdb database is marked as suspect. This means that my maintenance plandoesn't work. I'm a novice when it comes to sql server so now I'm wonderingif anyone could give a hint on how to fix the suspect msdb database? Doesthis database contain any vital information? What could be the reason thatthis database become suspect?Appreciate any suggestions in this matter.Thanks!--mvhHallgeir
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.
A client improperly shutdown a PC running MSDE and it corrupted the MSDB database which contained several DTS packages. I have tried fixing the problem on my own but have exhausted all the simple options like restarting SQL Server.
I googled the problem and found the following SQL script:
USE MasterGO-- Determine the original database statusSELECT [Name], DBID, StatusFROM master.dbo.sysdatabasesGO-- Enable system changessp_configure 'allow updates',1GORECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDEGO-- Update the database statusUPDATE master.dbo.sysdatabasesSET Status = 24WHERE [Name] = 'msdb'GO-- Disable system changessp_configure 'allow updates',0GORECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDEGO-- Determine the final database statusSELECT [Name], DBID, StatusFROM master.dbo.sysdatabasesGO I ran it and and it generated the log file below. I restarted MS SQL but the database was still marked as suspect (as I would expect from the log file).
Any help in interpreting and recovering from this problem would be greatly appreciated.
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.
Dear Experts, I'm using sql server 2005, and now i'm trying to restore with one backup. then i'm getting error saying that MSDB database in suspect mode.
how to make the DB to the normal mode.... please help me in this regard

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
We have a database in an AlwaysOn Availability Group that has gone into a state of Not Synchronizing / Suspect on the secondary.
The reason why this happened is because the secondary ran out of disk space so the log file wasn't able to be written to. The database was set to synchronous mode.
Is the only way to recover from this to do a re-initialization or is there another way to recover?
How Indexes are allocates on pages? And If a CREATE INDEX Statement Executed on a query Window, Query processor meets and executes these query. However it was meet, who decides to separate indexes onto pages? Storage Engine or Query Processor(Query Optimizer)? Does it work like UPDATE-Statements in Query Optimizer?
I in a table or partition, the first page is an IAM-Page if I'm not wrong, this page keeps track of the extents. In the first extent to where the "first_iam_page" points to, the extent is a mixed extent, therefore the pages can be from different tables or partitions, correct? How does my IAM-Page map the right pages to the corresponding table? the following extents are all uniform of one table type, so I guess it doesnt matter then. But n, how does it keep track of which pages belong to which tables in the first extent?
My second question is, the first IAM-Page is obviously an IAM-Page, but there are also GAM , SGAM and PFS Page files... where are they stored? Because when I create a table and insert a big value(8000) into it, it reserves 16KB for that table, one for the IAM-page, and one for the first data-page. But where can I find the GAM,SGAM and PFS page files? or are they not page files, just some other structures?
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.
I was recently tasked with creating an automated process to refresh SSIS packages from MSDB on one server to another and I decided to go the route of using Powershell, however this wasn't as straight forward as I originally imagined so I thought I would share my solution in case others encounter the same request. The below PowerShell code will create all Integration Services folders from the source MSDB (that contain SSIS packages) on the target instance of MSDB then copy all packages to the proper folder locations. The /QUIET option is used to automatically overwrite packages that already exist on the target so make sure you want to overwrite the current versions of your packages before executing.
in microsoft doc there is written on the topic of BP Extensions with SSD's in SQL Server 2014: only clean pages are written to disk... does this mean data pages that have not been modified yet? or also those data pages that have already been modified, and where log has finished writing and the transaction has been marked as commited??
why are there clean data pages being written to L2 cache to make space for other not modified pages? I mean, shoudnt they be modified first, before letting other unmodified data pages into the Cache? I mean they have still to be modified..that makes no sense to me to page them out and page them in again just for other data pages...
I have a bunch of packages in msdb. Is there any easier way to move those packages from msdb to DataTools/BIDS, instead of adding one package at a time using ADD option.
Suddenly one day I found some corruptions have occurred in my SQL Server 2012 installation. Because my 'msdb' has been marked SUSPECT/CORRUPT; hence no new work can be done as per my schedules.
I have gone about trying to repair it. I followed this article here: [URL] [the region 'Create new MSDB Database'].
I am facing some sizeable difficulties in doing this on my own. Steps 1. & 2. I have done. I am now stuck at step no. 3.My instance name is SQLEXPRESS. So, when I give,
SQLCMD -E -S<SQLEXPRESS> -dmaster -Q"EXEC sp_detach_db msdb" [as per the article], what I get is:
The System cannot find the file specified.
So I am stuck at that point. What's with the 'cannot find file specified'? The stored procedure, or the mdf, ldf files for my msdb? What is it?Also, if and when I am through with step no. 3 I would like to know about steps 5. & 6. also which are soon to follow [like how to do them correctly, safely and from where, the different options]. This is a huge priority for me to get my sql server up and running again because I can't do my other coding works without it. Everything is stalled. Slowly reaching the desperation, SOS mode..
When I log into Integrated Services on my SQL server, I see [Stored Package] -- File System and MSDB. When I deploy/import my SSIS packages which should it go under? Is there a difference and if so what the difference?
This is terrible thing to happed at 4:30 pm on Friday! I was working yesterday on some of deployment packages using file system (by the way, my msdb can not expand ) and just an hour ago I wanted to try some parent child deployment using file system. but, The only two folders I see in Integration services are Running Packages and Stored Packages. Nothing under those ones... I have checked default location for File System (C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSPackages) and there are three packages there but these do not show in IServices. And another question, if I execute package by double clicking on .dstx file should that make it show under File System?
On one of our SQL Server 2008R2 instances the MSDB log file (MSDBLog.ldf) has grown to 300GB+. The data (.mdf) file is only 3GB.
Neither DBCC Shrinkfile(MSDBLog) nor an interactive "Tasks / Shrink / ..."
I've already deleted much of the historyThe MSDB database is in "Simple" recovery modeI've done a full backup (in case the log was "waiting" for a backup)
I hesitate to do things (such as as Detach / Attach) with MSDB that I might do with a user database.
1) When I try to create a New Job/Alert/Operator, I get an error message:
Error 207: Invalid Column Name "category_id" Invalid Column Name "netsend_address" Invalid Column Name "last_netsend_date" Invalid Column Name "last_netsend_time"
.....All these are referring to columns in System Tables of the system Database MSDB.
2)In another SQL Server...say "A", in it's SQL Server Agent, using the Multi-Server Administration, I set up the SQL Server Agent of "A" as the Master (MSX) server, and set up a Target(TSX) server pointing to the Server "B" that has problems in SQL Agent....referred in 1) above. When I try to "Detach the MSX Server" from server B, i get a message Error 207: Invalid Column Name "netsend_address", and cannot detach..........This is again referrring to a System Table.
It appears that the problem is with the MSDB database being corrupt. Is there a way I can Repair a Corrupt MSDB without Re-installing SQL Server 2000 and without a Backup.
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?
I need to write a process to get file size in kb and record count in a file. I was planning on writing a c# console app that takes the file path and name as a param however should i use a CLR?
I cant put a script in the ssis when it's bringing the file down because it has been deemed that we only use ssis for file consumption.
I need find out the number of columns in flat file before i process that particular file.I have file name in @filename variable and file path is @filepath variable.But do not not that how i will check the column name in before i will process that file.
@filePath = C:DatabaseSourceFilesCAHCVSSourceFiles And i am using for each loop container to read the file one by one and put the file name in @filename variable.and my file name like
Now what i have to do is i need to make sure that ID,Name,City,County,Phone is there in flat file.if it is not there then i have to send mail to client saying that file is not valid.I need to also calculate the size of flat file.
The TEMPDB transaction log file keeps growing.The database server is new and the transaction log was presized to 1 GB on installation. After installing a number of databases, the log file grew over a day to 38GB. Issuing a manual checkpoint was the only way to free some space to allow it to be shrunk back to a usable size. The usage of the file is still going up.
I am struggling to find what process is causing the log to be used so heavily. Looking at the log reuse wait desc for tempdb returns "Nothing" and tempdb itself isn't being used very much or growing in size.
I have a filetable that contains a binary file. I need to do a selective read of the file stored in the file table. I can write a C# CLR function that will open the file, read n bytes the from a starting byte. Or I can write a SQL statement that reads the stream in the filetable into a VARBINARY variable using SUBSTRING beginning at the starting byte (offset from 1) for the same n bytes.
Both give me the same result. However, the SQL statement takes considerably longer to read. I know there is overhead in reading through SQL (interpreted language), but the difference in performance is substantial, and I can only attribute this performance degradation if SQL first tries to "load" the entire stream before it identifies the portion of the stream that it needs to read beginning at the starting byte offset.
I wonder if this is the case or if there is another option to read a stream from a filetable directly through SQL queries that is more efficient.
Why shrinkfile empty file does not redistribute data evenly in the primary file group with multiple files:
Please run the script attached to see what the end result is.
This is what I set up last night on my test machine.
1) Create database [FGTest] size 200MB 2) Create table called TEST on primary 3) Insert 40MB of data into test 4) Create another file group called temp in primary size 200MB 5) Shrinkfile('FGTest',emptyfile) so that all data is transfered from FGTest into temp file group. 6) Add another 2 files called DATA2 and DATA3. Both are 200MB. 7) We now have 3 empty files that I want data distributed evenly on. FGTest, DATA2 & DATA3 8) Shrinkfile('temp',emptyfile) to move all the data from temp over the 3 file groups evenly
I would expect at this stage to have the following:
FGTest = 13MB, DATA2 = 13MB, DATA3 = 13MB
(40MB of data over 3 files should be about 13 MBish in each file)
What I actually end up with is this:
FGTest = 20MB DATA1 = 10MB DATA2 = 10MB
It looks as though SQL Server is allocating 50% of all data to the original file and then 50% evenly over the remaining files in PRIMARY.
