Exactly, it's a page corruption, likely caused by some problem with the IO subsystem. Basically you have a dedicated extent (extent belonging to one object) that's marked as owned by...

I suppose you could schedule a job that ran the...

No. Not automatically.
You could restore another copy of the DB, roll the logs all the way forward and then use something like SQLDataCompare to see what's different and decide what...

The upgrade (iirc) is from MCITP 2005 to MCITP 2008. Without the 2005 ITP, you won't be able to just write the upgrade exam and get 2008 ITP. You'd have...

If you want the page density close to 100, then you'll have to set the fill factor to 100. SQL's not going to fill pages 100% when you've explicitly told...
