I have a 2005, SP4, 64 bit, Enterprise edition server. Our Netapp crashed suddenly and when it was brought back up DBCC CHECKDB found a corruption in a table. After dropping an index and rebuilding it the CRC errors stopped. Problem solved, except that BACKUPS now fail for this database (with the same CRC errors) when the process gets to the bad block in the data file. Netapp is proposing that they zero out that block (overwrite the block with all zeros) to correct this.Will this work and will it affect the database in any way? My initial thought is that the database should be fine as this block is not currently in use by any objects, but my boss is afraid of further corrupting the data file.Your thoughts?
