Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:
  • You create a partitioned view in SQL Server 2008 R2.

    For example, you create a partitioned view named View, and you define the CHECK constraints for the ColA column in the member tables of View1.
  • You create a clustered index for a column in the member tables of the partitioned view.

    For example, you create a clustered index for the ColB column in the member tables of View1.
  • You create a composite nonclustered index on multiple columns in the member tables. These columns include the columns that have a clustered index.

    For example, you create a nonclustered index on the ColA, ColB, and other columns in the member tables of View1.
  • You run an UPDATE statement against View1 to update the ColA column by using a predicate for the ColB column in the WHERE clause.

In this scenario, you receive the following error message when you run the statement:
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid object name 'View1'.
Additionally, a mini-dump file is generated in the SQL Server log folder. Also, an error message that resembles the following is logged for index corruption in the SQL Server Errorlog file:
