DBCC DBRECOVER finally removed from SQL Server

  • Article

For those of you who relied on that command, typically used in data recovery learning labs, just wanted to warn you, if you haven’t noticed already, that it has been removed from the product starting with SQL Server 2012 RTM.

The supported way to do what that undocumented DBCC command did would be using ALTER DATABASE DatabaseName SET ONLINE.
