sql server - What are the possible reasons for SQL Dumps? Tried using DBCC CHECKDB but with no success -
i have sql server 2008 (rtm) instance installed on windows server 2003. has around 30 databases. configuration running fine year, until today when sql server stopped unexpectedly , windows showed infamous bsod(blue screen of death).
i checked logs (application, system, sql error logs etc) , found sql had been generating dumps past 2 months. (sqldump0001,sqldump0002,sqldump0003,... upto sqldump0060 (60 sqldumps)).
i tried using dbcc checkdb , found "inconsistency errors" in 2-3 databases. when again used dbcc checkdb on same databases, on different server, there no errors.
can come possible reasons this? hardware issue? possibly ram? since happened today on production server, shifted backup server temporarily. need fix asap.
even minutest of appreciated!
solved!! took me day although.
i using ibm x3200 machine supports ddr2 pc2-5300(e) rams e stands ecc.
unfortunately, during hardware upgrade 2 months back, team upgraded x3200 machine ddr2 pc2-5300(u) ram (non-ecc) , not ddr2 pc2-5300(e) ram. , stands that, ecc supported motherboards not support non-ecc rams.
as result, sql dumping started , kept increasing each day. os crashed , bsod appeared. had change ram , format server. works now.
