SQL Server Data Recovery
Potential Problems:
- Corrupted Database MDF file
- Deleted Data or Dropped Objects (tables, rows, records, system objects)
- Deleted or Corrupted LDF log file
- Torn Page Detection
- I/O errors in the SQL server
- SQL Database in «suspected» mode
- Corrupted SQL backup file
The first step is always to analyze the storage device or file to identify the problem’s nature and the damage’s extent.
In many cases, media error (Hard Drive or RAID errors) causes the SQL database to be corrupted.
Therefore, If possible, it’s strongly recommended that you send us the physical storage device on which the SQL database was stored for evaluation.
We tend to get better recovery results when we complete the recovery at the hardware level.
In many cases sending us the physical drives would not be technically possible so that we can work on the actual file.
You can upload it or send it to us on the media.
If you wish to upload a file to us, please submit a case and contact us for the FTP details.
Each job is unique and will vary according to the file’s version, size, and problem.
The evaluation results tell the customer what we can recover, how much time it will take, and how much it will cost.
It is up to the customer to decide whether we should proceed with the recovery.
The recovery results will be submitted to the customer, as part of our verification of a successful recovery process, in the form of:
Name of the tables, Number of rows in each table, etc.
We will supply the recovered data on whatever medium the customer specifies.
