Check Database Integrity Task (Maintenance Plan)

Use the Check Database Integrity Task dialog to check the allocation and structural integrity of user and system tables, and indexes in the database, by running the DBCC CHECKDB[!INCLUDEtsql] statement. Running DBCC ensures that any integrity problems with the database are reported, thereby allowing them to be addressed later by a system administrator or database owner.
