I have 120 dedicated database servers. Many of the times , some databses
were marked as suspect because of some unexpected reboot, hardware errors
etc. So i just want to know Is there any script to fetch all the databases
that is marked as suspect? So that i can run the script from a central server
and make sure that all are working fine.
Thanks in advance,
JJ
You can use the DATABASEPROPERTYEX() function, the status attribute.

On the central server set up linked servers to all the other servers, so you can do something like:
SELECT ... FROM srvname.master.sys.databases...
Use the SMO API for this, and there connect to each server and then store the result in the central
server.
Use a more classic API, like ADO.NET to do the same.

Try , Not tested
SELECT Servername.master..sysdatabases
WHERE status & 256 != 256
|||Hi Tibor,
i just tried to get the result using osql.
i have used the following query:-
osql /U sa /P MjEfKa4ChVjX /d master /S rumosmsru0 /Q "SELECT
name,DATABASEPROPERTYEX(name, 'Status')FROM master.dbo.sysdatabases" -o
jj74.txt
the txt file is created successfully but when i checked the file and found
that it has nothing other than the caption "name".
Any idea?
Thanks,
JJ

I suggest you CAST the result from DATABASEPROPERTYEX to something like varchar(50) or something
suitable...
