Recover from consistency errors in table.

Question

Hi all,
I'm having trouble correcting consistency error on a table. I've tried a complete rebuild of all the indexes on the table but the result stays the same and is as follows:
Msg 8951, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Table error: table 'METINGEN_METINGEN' (ID 36299289). Data row does not have a matching index row in the index 'idx_METINGEN_METINGEN_METINGEN' (ID 7). Possible missing or invalid keys for the index row matching:
Msg 8955, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Data row (1:109702270:2) identified by (AutoID = 2150390 and MSESSIEID = '0000021587' and SOURCETYPE = 'M' and MEET_DATUM = '2008-09-25 00:00:00.000' and MEET_TIJD = '08:43:41') with index values 'METING_ID = '' and AutoID = 2150390 and MSESSIEID = '0000021587' and SOURCETYPE = 'M' and MEET_DATUM = '2008-09-25 00:00:00.000' and MEET_TIJD = '08:43:41''.
Msg 8952, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Table error: table 'METINGEN_METINGEN' (ID 36299289). Index row in index 'idx_METINGEN_METINGEN_METINGEN' (ID 7) does not match any data row. Possible extra or invalid keys for:
Msg 8956, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Index row (1:103520455:62) with values (METING_ID = '' and AutoID = 2150390 and MSESSIEID = '퍠෶ and SOURCETYPE = '퓠' and MEET_DATUM = '2008-09-25 00:00:00.000' and MEET_TIJD = '푐෶) pointing to the data row identified by (AutoID = 2150390 and MSESSIEID = '퍠෶ and SOURCETYPE = '퓠' and MEET_DATUM = '2008-09-25 00:00:00.000' and MEET_TIJD = '푐෶).
DBCC results for 'METINGEN_METINGEN'.
There are 48684994 rows in 4416906 pages for object "METINGEN_METINGEN".
CHECKTABLE found 0 allocation errors and 2 consistency errors in table 'METINGEN_METINGEN' (object ID 36299289).
repair_rebuild is the minimum repair level for the errors found by DBCC CHECKTABLE (EVD_Ont.dbo.METINGEN_METINGEN).
DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact your system administrator.
and also i can't find what (ID 7) means..

Answer 1

DBCC CHECKTABLE with the repair_rebuild is the next step i'm going to try.  Do you have an idea how long it should take? I mean, would it take as long as a checktable without the repair_rebuild?
Its not dbcc checktable but dbcc checkdb. You can use below query
Use db_name
GO
ALTER DATABASE db_name SET SINGLE_USER with rollback immediate
GO
DBCC CHECKDB('db_name', REPAIR_REBUILD)
GO
Time depends on size of database and amount of corruption checkdb has to fix
