Reindexing A Database...

Oct 18, 2007


All,

I've got a medium sized database in a mirror configuration with witness. The database size is about 300gb and I would to reindex all of the tables in the database. My process would go something like this:

1) Backup principal
2) Break the mirror
3) Set the principal database to simple recovery mode
4) Perform the reindexing
5) Backup the principal and transfer that backup to the mirror

6) Restore the backup
7) Re-establish the mirror


Does anyone see any issues with the process itself?

Regards,

Ian

REINDEXING IN VER 7

Jun 22, 1999

We load tables from text files for inquiries.
My procedure is to truncate the table
Use DTS to move the text file into the table
do the command DBCC DBREINDEX (TABLE,'')

Am I wasting my time?
Does SQL 7 rebuild the indicis as it loads the data from the text file?

Reindexing Tables

Sep 17, 2001

I've just recently tried to perform a scheduled reindexing job with the following command:

EXEC sp_MSforeachtable @command1="print '?' DBCC DBREINDEX ('?')"

Unfortunately, this command has only finished once of the five or six times I've tried to run it. The times it has failed, it deadlocks behind what seems to be a succession of other transactions. How can I make sure this command finishes?

Refragmentation And Reindexing

Dec 27, 2007

Hi experts,
For defragmenation and reindexing they are using the below cursor, and now they have asked me to remove the cursor and schedule the job accordingly to do the same functionality, so what will be the other way we can do without cursor? can you plase let me know the solution?


DECLARE @Database VARCHAR(255)
DECLARE @Table VARCHAR(255)
DECLARE @cmd NVARCHAR(500)
DECLARE @fillfactor INT

SET @fillfactor = 90

DECLARE DatabaseCursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT database_name FROM dbadmin.dbo.tdbstatus WHERE status='y'
AND database_name NOT IN ('master','model','msdb','tempdb')
ORDER BY 1

OPEN DatabaseCursor

FETCH NEXT FROM DatabaseCursor INTO @Database
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SET @cmd = 'DECLARE TableCursor CURSOR FOR SELECT table_catalog + ''.'' + table_schema + ''.'' + table_name as tableName
FROM ' + @Database + '.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE table_type = ''BASE TABLE'''

-- create table cursor
EXEC (@cmd)
OPEN TableCursor

FETCH NEXT FROM TableCursor INTO @Table
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN




SET @cmd = 'ALTER INDEX ALL ON ' + @Table + ' REBUILD WITH (FILLFACTOR = ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(3),@fillfactor) + ')'
EXEC (@cmd)

FETCH NEXT FROM TableCursor INTO @Table
END

CLOSE TableCursor
DEALLOCATE TableCursor

FETCH NEXT FROM DatabaseCursor INTO @Database
END
CLOSE DatabaseCursor
DEALLOCATE DatabaseCursor


Your help will be appreciated.

Maintenance Plan, Reindexing

Mar 24, 2005

In the Enterprise Manager of SQL Server 2000 I have set up a maintenance plan which rebuilds my indexes. I've stuided the documentation, and from what I've learned what happens behind the curtain is that several DBCC REINDEX commands are being issued.
Question:
If I have 20 tables and 40 indexes: Will SQL Server do the maintance plan in 1 single transaction, or will it divide the it up to eg. 20 or 40 transactions?

Reindexing And Transaction Logs

Dec 14, 2004

Hi All,

Just after some feedback on a scenario where we have full logging setup on one of the databases, and the transaction logs are backed up every 60min. At 0000-0100 the log jumps from being a few thousand k up to over 1.7gb.
I did some profiling for this time, and it appears that this jump is related to the reindexing of the indexes on the database.

Is this normal for the log file to jump in size so much? Or is this an indication of some other issue (potentially with the indexes)?

Is there any way that the reindexing can be excluded from the log files or is this a necessity?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Cheers
Troy

While this is goodnews or the business, maintenance is starting to become an issue as thedatabase is the backend for a website which cannot be down for alengthy period of time.While I do defrag the indexes, periodically the indexes do need to berebuilt. When this happens, the process locks pages and transactionsstart getting bounced out.Are their any third party utilities which will rebuild an indexwithout this locking occuring?

Effect On Snapshots While Reindexing

Apr 30, 2007

Does someone know if doing a reindex on a clustered or non-clustered index cause the snapshot file to grow? In other words, is the data that makes up the snapshot copied from the source to the snapshot database? If a normal reindex is done on the underlying database, will it block users from acessing the snapshot? Any help would be appreciated.

Extent Fragmentation High Just After Reindexing

Jul 18, 2007

Hello. When reviewing the DBCC SHOWCONTIG immediately after reindexing all indexes on a database, I see the ExtentFragmentation has values like 50 to 70%... These are SQL 2005 tables with clustered PK's, no large varchars/blobs, and at least 100 pages in the index... The numbers related to PAGE fragmentation are ok after reindexing, but not the EXTENT fragmentation numbers.



I noticed the drive is in need of being defragged at the disk level. Is that a reason why reindexing doesn't fix the Extent frag numbers?? ANy other ideas on this? I can try defragging the DISK over the weekend, bringing the database offline then, but any other thougths on why the Extents show these high %'s? Is there any command to reset them and maybe that isn't happening? Like must I do update usage to get valid Extent frag #'s??



If there were MANY autogrows on the files, is that a different level of fragmentation? and how could all those small pieces of files be pulled back together? Thanks, Bruce

SQL2005 Cannot Backup A Restored SQL2000 Database With Unknow Database Full-text Catalog Database

Nov 15, 2007



We replicate a SQL2000 database (DataBaseA) to a SQL2000 database (DataBaseB) by using the Restore function and hasn't change its logical name but only the physical data path and file name. It is running fine for a year. We use the same way to migrate the DataBaseB to a new SQL2005 server with the Restore function and the daily operation is running perfect. However, when we do the Backup of DatabaseB in the SQL2005, it just prompt the error message


System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup of full-text catalog 'DataBaseA' is not permitted because it is not online. Check errorlog file for the reason that full-text catalog became offline and bring it online. Or BACKUP can be performed by using the FILEGROUP or FILE clauses to restrict the selection to include only online data. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)


Please note we left the DataBaseA in the old SQL2000 server.


Please help on how we can delete the Full-text catalog from DatabaseB so we can do a backup


Many Thanks

Database Explorer In VB Express:AdventureWorks.mdf-Files Do Not Match The Primary File Of The Database

Nov 5, 2007

Hi all,

I downloaded and ran AdventureWorks.msi into my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) one year ago.But I did not know how to attach it to my SSMSE then. Last week, I deleted it from the "Add or Remove" of Control Panel and I downloaded the new AdventureWork.msi and installed it my SSMSE. Today, I tried to use the Database Explorer of VB 2005 Express for the first Stored Procedure programming. I clicked on AdventureWorks.mdf and I got the following error: One or more files do not match the primary of the database. If you are attempting to attach a database, retry the operation with the correct files. If this is an existing database, the file may be corrupt and should be restored from a backup. Cannot open user default database. Login failed. Login failed for user 'CENADe1enxshc'. Log file 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataAdventureWorks_Data_log.ldf' does not match the primary file. It may be from a different database of the log may have been rebuilt previously. Please help and advise me how to correct this problem.

Thanks,
