Corruption in SQL Server database is the most mind-scratching situation for a user because it holds crucial information. No doubt! the loss of a single table record in database is certainly equivalent to a heart attack.
To repair SQL table, it is mandatory to remove corruption from primary database file i.e., MDF. The SQL Server MDF file stores huge amount of data records in the form of tables and other database objects such as Views, Triggers, Constraints, etc. Once the SQL primary database file gets corrupted, all the records become inaccessible. Adding to it, one cannot retrieve the data from SQL Server table without repairing it.
All in all, it is clear that we need to fix the corrupted MDF file to access the table records. However, the problem is many users do not know how to recover data from corrupted tables in MS SQL Server. Therefore, in this write-up, we are going to show you how to perform SQL Server table repair operation with the help of Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
In the following section, the two workarounds are described with detailed information to recover SQL table. So, let’s begin.
First of all, it is suggested whenever any file corruption occurs, so, instead of repairing it restore the file from backup copy. In case, if there is no backup file, then go to repair operation. This workaround is further classified into two stages.
Make sure that AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS_ASYNC setting is turned Off while setting up the database to SINGLE_USER mode. Because, if this option remains enabled, then the thread whose function is to update the statistics creates problem. As a result, user becomes unable to access the database in Single user-mode.
Step 1: Open Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
Step 2: After that, you need to connect the database via. Windows Authentication.
Step 3:Now, go to the Object Explorer and connect with SQL Server Database Engine.
Step 4: Next, choose the database whose table you want to repair and right-click on it.
Step 5: Select Properties option to continue the process.
Step 6: Afterward, a Database Properties dialog box appears on the screen. Here, you need to click on Options page.
Step 7: Opt for Single under the Restrict Access section.
Note: In such a situation if other users are also connected to the selected database, an Open Connections message display on the screen. Click on Yes to disconnect all connections.
Go through the following instructions to achieve the same.
dbcc checkdb(‘Name_of_Database’, REPAIR_REBUILD)
dbcc checkdb(‘Name_of_Database’, REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS)
Once the tables and other data gets repaired, then again set the database to multi-user mode.
