Author msdb restore

Hello --

Using SQL 2000. When performing a trans log restore to our backup SQL box
the server locked up. After I got the server restarted the msdb was marked
'suspect'. I don't have a backup of the msdb. I can still perform
restores, but I get error message about the msdb. Do I need to re-install
SQL on this box? I'm not sure what to do (besides doing msdb backups from
now on). Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,

No need to install SQL Server.

Start SQL Server with Trace 3608 from command prompt

SQLSERVER -T3608 -m

Drop or detach the MSDB database and rebuild the MSDB using the installation
script(INSTMSDB.SQL) in the SLQ Server install folder. But after this
you need to create all your sql agent jobs manually. Please ensure that you
do a backup of MSDB database hereafter :)

One more solution-

Start SQL Server with Trace 3608 from command prompt

SQLSERVER -T3608 -m

From query analyzer Detach MSDB database, copy the files from the CD (in
x86\Data) and then attach this files.

Thanks
