sp_resetstatus turns off the suspect flag on a database. This procedure updates the mode and status columns of the named database in sys.databases. The SQL Server error log should be consulted and all problems resolved before running this procedure. Stop and restart the instance of SQL Server after you execute sp_resetstatus.

A database can become suspect for several reasons. Possible causes include denial of access to a database resource by the operating system, and the unavailability or corruption of one or more database files.

Requires membership in the sysadmin fixed server role.

The following example resets the status of the AdventureWorks database.

EXEC sp_resetstatus 'AdventureWorks';
