Recovery of Suspect Database

I have a large database (>150 million records) that is marked "Suspect" and I would like to recover this if possible. Our IT group did an unexpected reboot of the server during a data import process implemented in multiple nested DTS packages. After the reboot, the database was marked as Suspect
SQL Server won't let me dbcc checkdb, restore datbase with recovery or even back up the log file (DB recovery mode is SIMPLE). After running sp_resetstatus and restarting SQL Server, a new error log and dump file are generated and the database is reset to Suspect. A two-day-old backup is available and I can replace all the data by reimporting the missing days, but this will take days and I'm hoping to be able to recover the existing DB.
A couple of snippets from the error log are below. I also have a 18+ MB dump file. What's the best approach to fixing this

You can set the status of your DB to -32768 which is emergency mode. This
should allow you to see the database unless the mdf file is actually gone.

Recovery of Suspect Database

I have a large database (>150 million records) that is marked "Suspect" and I would like to recover this if possible. Our IT group did an unexpected reboot of the server during a data import process implemented in multiple nested DTS packages. After the
reboot, the database was marked as Suspect.
SQL Server won't let me dbcc checkdb, restore datbase with recovery or even back up the log file (DB recovery mode is SIMPLE). After running sp_resetstatus and restarting SQL Server, a new error log and dump file are generated and the database is reset to
Suspect. A two-day-old backup is available and I can replace all the data by reimporting the missing days, but this will take days and I'm hoping to be able to recover the existing DB.
A couple of snippets from the error log are below. I also have a 18+ MB dump file. What's the best approach to fixing this?

|||Yeah, I saw that site. Those steps aren't working. If I can't find a way to recover otherwise, I may use emergency mode and bcc the data out as a fail-safe before attempting a restore from backup. Not being able to even force it out of Suspect mode preclu
des a number of things I might try. Thanks Jeff! -- Scott

Recovery of Suspect Database

I have a large database (>150 million records) that is marked "Suspect" and
I would like to recover this if possible. Our IT group did an unexpected re
boot of the server during a data import process implemented in multiple nest
ed DTS packages. After the
reboot, the database was marked as Suspect.
SQL Server won't let me dbcc checkdb, restore datbase with recovery or even
back up the log file (DB recovery mode is SIMPLE). After running sp_resetsta
tus and restarting SQL Server, a new error log and dump file are generated a
nd the database is reset to
Suspect. A two-day-old backup is available and I can replace all the data by
reimporting the missing days, but this will take days and I'm hoping to be
able to recover the existing DB.
A couple of snippets from the error log are below. I also have a 18+ MB dump
file. What's the best approach to fixing this?

You can set the status of your DB to -32768 which is emergency mode. This
should allow you to see the database unless the mdf file is actually gone.

recover otherwise, I may use emergency mode and bcc the data out as a fail-s

out of Suspect mode preclu

Recovering SA Password or Adding sysadmin Login

Hi,
Recently some body played with our SQL Server and removed our Sys admin
group login and we dont have builtin\admin as login and no SA Password
can any body tell the way to come out with this situation to change the SA
Password or create our Group back with Sys admin priviledges.
also to confirm we are still in NT admin group for the server.
below article talk about similar case but as soon as i try to run sqlcmd
utility after taking server in single mode as per article ,it throws error
that you cant run sqlcmd since server in Single user mode.
Any help is appreciated..."sacgar" wrote:

Records Versioning/Auditing

Howdy,
Forgive me if this is the wrong group. I'm writing a ASP.Net application and
i need to track every change to a table's records. In SQL 2005, is there a
way to easily keep a record change history? Something with rules or triggers
or something? Or am I stuck comparing every field manually before i perform
the UPDATE?
Thanks a lot!

table prior to or after an update).
I recommend checking out ApexSQL's Audit. It can set up everything for you
with a mostly point-and-click interface.

per hour that is only 30 hours before you hit the same amount. No way you
can build out a fully functional system like Audit can do for you in that
time frame.
Note too that the license is just for the client that sets up the auditing.
You can audit unlimited servers from that one purchase. See here,
http://www.apexsql.com/sql_tools_audit.asp, 4th bullet point from the top.
And they have a viewer to report on the audited information that is only $50
per client.

RecordNumber by Group?

Hello,

Is it possible to show a record number or count by group? I know the RecordNumber field will show me the number for the whole report but what I would like is the following:

Group A
1
2
3
Group B
1
2
3

Instead of group B being 4,5,6...

I'm trying to figure out how to number the lines per group heading. I hope that makes sense.

Many thanks,

StephenInsert a count() into the footer and count how you want. It gives the choices|||Thank you for the suggestions but I'm looking to get a count (like a row number) at the detail level however and I don't think I can do it that way (that I'm aware of).|||You have to do it manually for each Group. Increment and show the counter in the detail and reset in the Group Header/footer.|||You can create a running total:

select a field to summarize;
type of summaries: count
evaluate: for each record
reset: on change of group (select one you need)
:wave:
