How to fix Recovery Pending State in SQL Server Database?
630
Recovery Pending: When the SQL server knows that the database needs to be restored but there is an obstacle before starting. This status differs from the suspect mode because it cannot be declared that the database restore has failed but the process has not yet started.
Right-Click on the Database and Delete it to remove SQL recovery pending state permanently.
If you receive an error that the database is in use, try to set the user to single user mode: USE master; GO ALTER DATABASE Database_name SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE; Then try the restore with recovery command again. Also, make sure you are on the latest service pack or cumulative update.
If your database is stuck in EMERGENCY mode, try to look for the last backup to restore the database and recover its information. If the backup is corrupt or unavailable, use a SQL recovery tool like Stellar Repair for MS SQL to restore your database to its original state.
Execute the following set of queries:
ALTER DATABASE [DBName] SET EMERGENCY; GO ALTER DATABASE [DBName] set single_user GO DBCC CHECKDB ([DBName], REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS) WITH ALL_ERRORMSGS; GO ALTER DATABASE [DBName] set multi_user GO For more info: https://www.stellarinfo.com/blog/fix-sql-database-recovery-pending-state-issue/
