To successfully configure, manage, develop and access all the SQL server components, an integrated environment named SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) is provided to the database users. Corruption in SSMS results in inaccessibility of SQL database components and various error messages. In such circumstances, the user needs to use effective SQL Recovery software.

For example, when a user attempts to connect to the SQL database and opens SSMS, he encounters this below error message:

“Database ‘msdb’ cannot be opened. It has been marked suspect”

The main cause of the above error message is that the SQL database has been suspected. This situation occurs under following conditions:

  • When the error log file does not match with the database file
  • SQL database corruption

When the user views the SQL Server application event log, he finds the following entry:

“The log scan number (152:284:1) passed to log scan in database ‘msdb’ is not valid. This error may indicate data corruption or that the log file (.ldf) does not match the data file (.mdf). If this error occurred during replication, re-create the publication. Otherwise, restore from backup if the problem results in a failure during startup.”

Once the above error message appears on the screen, SQL database becomes inaccessible. To resolve the above problem, the user can use an inbuilt tool named sp_resetstatus. This tool enables the user to change the SQL database status and access the SQL database again. But in this case, this inbuilt tool will not be able to resolve the issue. This tool will only allow the user to connect to the SQL Server instances and will let you access other databases. To resolve the above error message and perform complete sql database recovery, the user needs to use a third party application known as SQL Recovery software.
