Software Review - Stellar Repair for MS SQL

Introduction

while creating MS-SQL Server backups, we have to turn on the "RESTORE VERIFYONLY" option to verify if the database can be restored through backup. During this, we realized that the SQL-Server database was discarded.

The only option was to repair and fix corruption issues in the MS SQL database.
SQL-Server database corruption occurs due to several reasons such as misrepresentation in 'Tables,' 'Index,' Data Page Level misrepresentation, or SQL-Server errors. These errors can be detected in SQL-Server Error Log or through Database Console Command. We tried some commands to check and repair corruption errors in the SQL-database:

1. These commands i.e., DBCC TABLE CHECK - It checks logical and physical consistency of database objects and gives results at the database page level
2. DBCC TABLE REPAIR - It repairs some specific object errors.
3. REPAIR_REBUILD - It repairs SQL database object errors at the individual level.
