How to recover suspect database

  • Best practice to start a new thread for each problem.

    What happened to the database?

    Please post the output from:

    select state_desc from master.sys.databases

    where name ='yourdbname'

    If this is a time-critical issue, you should call Product Support for assistance, as any help we're able to give you over the forums is going to involve time delays.

    Thanks

  • Guys,

    If I don't want any 'data loss' and want to recover the database from Suspect mode, well, how to do it? Moreover, I don't have any 'backup' of the database also...

    any suggestion friends?

    Thanks.

  • Please post your question in a new thread. Thank you.

  • Simple way to resolve the "msdb cannot be opened. it has been marked suspect by recovery" issue,

    just run the INSTMSDB.SQL script, which is under SQL server install directory under INSTALL folder.

    This script can be re-run WITHOUT causing loss of data, hence we only create the database if it missing (if the database already exists we test that it has enough free space and if not we expand both the device and the database)
