Cross Object Linkage Table Error!

In the MS SQL Server database, the tables are divided into various numbers of partitions. These are maintained by the B-tree (non-clustered) or heap (clustered) structure. Both these are having different ways to store the data. In the heap tree structure the data is arranged in a pre-specified order where as in the B-tree structure the data is stored in one place and the index in another. The meta data plays an important role in the management of data. If the Metadata structure gets corrupted due to any internal or external reasons then the associated data will be inaccessible. If it occurs then you will see the error messages.

One very simple solution to conquer this issue is to restore the data from the updated backup but in case there is the unavailability of updated backup you need to find other options. One simple and smart option is to use the MSSQL Database Repair Applications.

Consider a scenario where you get the following error message while accessing the table records:

“Table Error: Cross Object Linkage: Page P_ID1, slot S_ID1, in object ID 0_ID1, index ID I_ID1 refers to page P_ID2, Slot S_ID2, in object ID 0_ID2, index ID I_ID2.”

“If this error message has occurred on your computer screen then each time you try to access the table, the database tables becomes inaccessible. So you can only view the error message which will be level 16 error message.

The main reason for the above error message is that the page P_ID1 is pointing to a page P_ID2 in a wrong object. The message can also occur due to the logical or physical crash.

To sort out this problem you can change the damaged component of your system with a new component if it is physically damaged. You can also run the DBCC CHECKDB command to resolve the table error post logical crash. While running this command remember to provide the appropriate repair clause. If the command does not help you then there is MSSQL Database Repair to solve it efficiently. It is a non destructive easy to use application that work to repair corrupted database items and give back all the lost or inaccessible data back so that user can further perform the queries after the repair process.
