In the previous series of the articles, I shared internal structure of the Data File and Data Page of the SQL Server.

In this article, I am going to share small practical demonstration on how to find Data Page information of a particular table of the SQL Server.

First, Create a table with sample data:

CREATE TABLE dbo.tbl_TestDataPage 
(
	DataPageID INT PRIMARY KEY
	,Name VARCHAR(30)	
)
GO

INSERT dbo.tbl_TestDataPage 
VALUES 
(1,'Anvesh'),(2,'Neevan')
,(3,'Martin'),(4,'Jeeny')
,(5,'Maria'),(6,'Roy')
GO

Execute DBCC IND to check allocated pages of a Table:
You should put your Database_Name. -1 means display all type of pages.

DBCC IND('Database_Name', 'tbl_TestDataPage', -1)

The Result:
PageFID is a file number and PagePID is a page number. You can use these numbers for further tracing.

Execute DBCC PAGE to find more information about the allocated page:

Syntax:

DBCC PAGE ( {'database_name' or DB_ID}, file_number, page_number [, printopt={0|1|2|3} ])

Print option:
0 - print the page header
1 - page header plus per-row hex dumps and slot array 
2 - page header plus whole page hex dump
3 - detailed per-row interpretation

DBCC TRACEON(3604) -- This trace flag enable result in table format. 
GO
DBCC PAGE('database_name',1,274,3)
GO

The Result:
