  • RE: DB reported size appears to be massively innaccurate!

    On SQL 2000 run DBCC UPDATEUSAGE and check again. There were 'inadequacies' in the way SQL 2000 maintained the space-used metadata in the database.

  • RE: Restoring SUSPECT database _from backup_

    If you have a backup, restore from backup. It's when you don't have a backup that all sorts of tricks are needed to get the DB back.

    Cannot run out of time. There is infinite time. You are finite, Zathras is finite. This is wrong tool.

    Sorry, not sure what you're asking here. Can you rephrase please?
