Using DBCC PAGE in Production Environment

We normally in the understanding that, we should never use undocumented commands in production like DBCC PAGE or DBCC IND etc. Recently, during a training, I got to know that there is no harm of using DBCC PAGE.

Only thing to worry here is, syntax or output or DBCC PAGE can be changed by Microsoft, WITHOUT SUPPORTING backward compatibility.

So it is perfectly safe to use valuable DBCC PAGE command but do not create automated task from DBCC PAGE, Use it for troubleshooting tasks.
