If I ran a weekend job to perform a DBCC Checkdb on my databases, is there a
n alert that I can monitor for which will inform me of any problems discover
ed? Or is there a method to get the output of the DBCC Checkdb to a text fi
le? When running this command as a scheduled job, I don't see the output I
am in the habit of perusing for errors.
Please advise. Or tell me how you approach executing database maintenance.
Thanx!Here's what I'd do:
Define two jobsteps, "at the end" of the job. One has subject "success", the
other "error". In these, you use xp_sendmail or xp_smtp_sendmail (I
recommend this: www.sqldev.net) In the "real" jobsteps, define "next step"
on success and on failure you go to the one where you send the email with
"failure".
In the DBCC jobstep, you define an output file, and in the mail jobsteps,
you specify that file as an attachment.

Thanx!|||Use sqlmaint.exe utility as described in BOL. It can sends out put to a file
. The file could be in text and /or html format.
EXEC xp_sqlmaint '-S SQLSERVER -PlanName "DBMAINTPLAN 1" -CkDB -Rpt D:\Dbm
aint\DBCC.out -DelTxtRpt 2months -HtmlRpt D:\Dbmaint\DBCC_result.htm'
