Error 926

Severity Level 14

Message Text

Database '%.*s' cannot be opened - it has been marked SUSPECT by recovery. The SA can drop the database with DBCC.

Explanation

This informational message occurs when an attempt to open or use a database that has a sysdatabase status column value greater than or equal to 256 and less than 1024 occurs.

The database is marked as suspect because it failed the recovery process that brings a database to a consistent transactional state during startup or during the load database or load transaction procedures.

Action

Inspect the SQL Server error log and determine the cause of the error. If SQL Server has been restarted since the failed recovery, look at previous SQL Server error logs to see the reason why recovery failed. Correct the underlying problem. If you are unable to resolve this problem, contact your primary support provider. Have the SQL Server error log available for review.
