The Error Log - Fatal Database (dbid) Processes Error (severity level 21) alarm becomes active when Spotlight Enterprise detects a new fatal error message that contains the log entry 'Severity: 21' in the SQL Sever error log. It indicates that a problem has been encountered that affects all tasks in the current database, but it is unlikely that the database itself has been damaged.

When this alarm is raised run ‘DBCC CHECKDB’ to determine the extent of the corruption.
