SQLvariant T-SQL Tuesday #86 Adding when DBCC CHECKDB last ran to the SYS.DATABASES catalog view Posted on 10 January 2017 Comments Brent Ozar is hosting TSQL2sDay #86 this month and in response to Brent Ozar’s Call for Important Connect Items I wanted to highlight this one about adding the date of the last known good DBCC CHECKDB to SYS.DATABASES.
