[dba-SQLServer]Repairing a corrupt table

Eric -

Thanks for your response.

Running sp_who2 returned 15 records with statuses ranging from sleeping,
to background, to runnable.

What do these statuses mean?  Should I only be concerned with runnable
and background?

 

Also, you mention turning "off" replication.

Is there a way to turn off replication without deleting the
subscription?  We used many filters when creating the subscription, and
I don't want to recreate them if I don't have to.

 

Thanks again,

Mark

Mark,

 

Go to the database you want to use and then click on Tools and then SQL
Query Analyzer from the menu.

 

Type sp_who2 to get a list of connections and processes they are
running.

 

I don't believe you can put the db in single user mode with replication
turned on. You will need to turn it off then.

	I am in the process of repairing a corrupt table.

	My backup software is failing with the following message: 'Table
Corrupt: Object ID 734690461, Index ID 2. Keys out of order on page
(1:78526), slots 145 and 146.'

	It seems table MSmerge_contents has become corrupt.  This table
is used in the replication with another SQL Server.

	I ran DBCC_CHECKDB to make sure this was the only table with
corruption issues.  Now I want to run the repair option, but am prompted
with a message stating the database needs to be in single-user mode in
order to repair.  I tried putting the db into single-user mode, but am
prompted with an error message telling me the option can't be changed
while another user is in the database.  I'm pretty sure no one else is
in it, but am thinking the subscription to the other server needs to be
removed to do this.

	Has anyone dealt with this sort of issue before?

	How can I tell if anyone is connected to the database?

	 

	TIA,
