function Get-DbaLastGoodCheckDb { <# .SYNOPSIS Get date/time for last known good DBCC CHECKDB .DESCRIPTION Retrieves and compares the date/time for the last known good DBCC CHECKDB, as well as the creation date/time for the database. This function supports SQL Server 2005 and higher. Please note that this script uses the DBCC DBINFO() WITH TABLERESULTS. DBCC DBINFO has several known weak points, such as: - DBCC DBINFO is an undocumented feature/command. - The LastKnowGood timestamp is updated when a DBCC CHECKFILEGROUP is performed. - The LastKnowGood timestamp is updated when a DBCC CHECKDB WITH PHYSICAL_ONLY is performed. - The LastKnowGood timestamp does not get updated when a database in READ_ONLY. An empty ($null) LastGoodCheckDb result indicates that a good DBCC CHECKDB has never been performed. SQL Server 2008R2 has a "bug" that causes each databases to possess two dbi_dbccLastKnownGood fields, instead of the normal one. This script will only display this function to only display the newest timestamp. If -Verbose is specified, the function will announce every time more than one dbi_dbccLastKnownGood fields is encountered. .PARAMETER SqlInstance The SQL Server instance to connect to. .PARAMETER SqlCredential Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins instead of Windows Authentication (AKA Integrated or Trusted). To use: $scred = Get-Credential, then pass $scred object to the -SqlCredential parameter. Windows Authentication will be used if SqlCredential is not specified. SQL Server does not accept Windows credentials being passed as credentials. To connect as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user. .PARAMETER Database Specifies one or more database(s) to process. If unspecified, all databases will be processed. .PARAMETER ExcludeDatabase Specifies one or more database(s) to exclude from processing. .PARAMETER EnableException By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message. This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting. Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch. .NOTES Tags: CHECKDB, Database Author: Jakob Bindslet (jakob@bindslet.dk) Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (C) Chrissy LeMaire, clemaire@gmail.com License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK DBCC CHECKDB: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms176064.aspx http://www.sqlcopilot.com/dbcc-checkdb.html Data Purity: http://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/paul/checkdb-from-every-angle-how-to-tell-if-data-purity-checks-will-be-run/ https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1988/ensure-sql-server-data-purity-checks-are-performed/ .EXAMPLE Get-DbaLastGoodCheckDb -SqlInstance ServerA\sql987 Returns a custom object displaying Server, Database, DatabaseCreated, LastGoodCheckDb, DaysSinceDbCreated, DaysSinceLastGoodCheckDb, Status and DataPurityEnabled .EXAMPLE Get-DbaLastGoodCheckDb -SqlInstance ServerA\sql987 -SqlCredential (Get-Credential sqladmin) | Format-Table -AutoSize Returns a formatted table displaying Server, Database, DatabaseCreated, LastGoodCheckDb, DaysSinceDbCreated, DaysSinceLastGoodCheckDb, Status and DataPurityEnabled.
