Feodor GeorgievSQL Server performance SQL Blog Here is the story: you wake up one morning, and as you read your email, you come across a the log for database tempdb is not available error 9001 SQL Server notification about "SQL Server Alert System: ‘Severity 021' occurred on Server1". the log for database is not available sql 2008 Sounds bad. How bad is it? Do you panic? Not yet. Step 1: understand what the error means. After the log for database is not available 9001 a short consultation with the web you realize that the error is related to the corrupt or missing log file of the database, or a malfunctioning hard drive. Step 2. Is there

a backup? NO?! Since the database log is not readable / accessible, it only makes sense that there is no backup, and since you delete the backups older than 2 days, the last working backup of the database is gone. Do you panic now? A little. Step 3. Check the SQL Server error log for additional messages. All you find is "Error: 9001, Severity: 21, the log for database is not available sql 2008 r2 State: 1." and "The log for database ‘name_here' is not available. Check the event log for related error messages. Resolve any errors and restart the database." Cryptic, huh. Step 4. You try to backup the database. No go, it is expected. Step 5. You try to detach the database. You know that SQL Server re-creates the log file if you try to attach an existing database and if you do not point to a specific log file. Good plan, but the detaching of the database does not work. The database is flagged as "not ready" and you cannot detach it. NOW do you panic? No, because you have a lot more tricks up your sleeve. Step 6. Query a table in the database. Ha! It works. The database is "not ready", but it is not "Suspect" yet. So, you can actually get the data out… Step 7. Right-click on the database, go to ‘Tasks' and then to ‘Copy Database'. The wizard starts, you follow it, and through it you create a SSIS package which helps you create a new database where all the data from the ‘not ready' database is

Just because you can see the lun and get to the folder doesn't mean there's a problem. There could be a write problem that isn't affecting reads for example.Check the SQL Server error log. If you see any 823 errors refer to the following articles.http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=828339andhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/826433/I'd always get the hardware vendor to check for hardware failures. The fact that the error message indicates that there is an IO error indicates that this is where the problem most likely lies.Good luck.

Sometimes you may face an error stating "The log for database 'DB_NAME' is not available" while trying to delete a MS SQL database from the server.
