Database marked SUSPECT

  • I have a Database on a 7.0 instance that I had locked down in single-user/read only mode. When I try and take it out of single-user/read only mode, the Database goes into SUSPECT mode and I cannot access it at all. Can anyone help??

  • Did you do this from a SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager?  I have experienced this with "offline", which is not supported in 7.0. 

    You might try using sp_resetstatus to reset the suspect status.

    See "Resetting the Suspect Status" in 7.0 books online.

  • Yes, That must be what happened. I have sql server 2000 tools on my desktop. Thank you!

  • I haven't seen many issues managing 7.0 with 2000 tools, but there are a few!

    Hope the sp_resetstatus works for you.
