Dbreindex Vs Index Defrag Question

Mar 9, 2007

Does anyone know if dbreindex and index defrag ideally perform the same function? I have been told that index defrag does not hold locks on a table when executed and dbreindex does. Other than this is there any difference between the two functions? My understanding was that dbreindex reindexes the data stored in a table for faster reads and index defrag removes purged data. Am I correct? I am currently running both functions on my SQL server and was advised that I really only need to run the index defrag job. Is this advise correct?

DBCC DEFRAG Vs DBCC DBREINDEX

May 11, 2006

What factors would make you decide to use DBCC DBREINDES instead of DBCC DEFRAG when you notice index defragmantation?

Thanks.

Does Index Defrag Get Logged?

Sep 15, 2006

I've noticed a huge transaction log size after having run an
index defragmentation. Does a defrag get written to the transaction
log really? (Assuming the full recovery model.)

Index Rebuild Does Not Defrag

Oct 3, 2007

Hi,

After issuing an index rebuild on a primary key index (and updating statistics), the index still shows a scan density of 12.5%!

Any ideas on why the rebuild doesn't seem to do anything on the fragmentation levels?

I'm using sql 2005

Thanx

MS SQL Question Regarding Page/index Defrag.

Apr 17, 2005

I know the shortcut to 'defragging' the database to eliminate and
reclaim 'whitespace' in data and index pages is to setup a maintenance
plan. This doesn't work for me for two reasons:
1. I like to know how things work.
2. I can not create maintenance plans with my hosted provider.
I use the following T-SQL to rebuild all indexes on all tables:

-- exec sp_MSforeachtable "DBCC DBREINDEX ('?', ' ', 90)

But, does that not only address indexes? What about getting whitepace
back from data in tables themselves?
Am I over-thinking this?
When you're paying for SQL by the MB and generate a lot of data (with a
fair amount of churn) you want to keep it optimized and efficient,
right?

SQL 2012 :: Clustered Index Defrag Not Working

Apr 15, 2015

I have a clustered index which shows as having a fragmentation level of 66% according to sys.dm_db_index_ physical_ stats.avg_ fragmentation_ in_ percent.

But no matter what I try the fragmentation level doesn't budge. And yes I'm updating the statistics after each attempt.Its not a huge issue the table only has 348 records. I'm testing a fixing fragmentation maintenance script. In Ironing out the syntax of my script I've fixed the fragmentation of indexes of over 65 % anyway..I've come across and index that I can't defragment. I've tried

ALTER INDEX ALL ON [GRIDINFO] REBUILD WITH (FILLFACTOR = 90)

I've tried

ALTER INDEX ALL ON [GRIDINFO] REORGANIZE

I've tried

DBCC INDEXDEFRAG (MYDATABASE, 'GRIDINFO', PK__GRIDINFO__3214EC2721F5FC7F);

The command complete successfully yet the avg_fragmentation_in_percent doesn't change. The table also has a nonclustered index. I've gleaned through all the statements of 'this will have no effect if' but so far I've not spotted a reason why this index won't defrag.The script has been modified to remove schema and database names for the forum.

dbcc showcontig('GRIDINFO','IDX_GRIDINFO1') with tableresults , all_levels
go
DBCC SHOWCONTIG ('GRIDINFO')
go
sp_helpindex 'GRIDINFO'

[code]....

DB Engine :: Index Defrag Routine Audit Frag Values

Aug 26, 2015

I am currently re-writing an overnight index defrag procedure and would like to audit indexes in my database - logging the before defrag action" avg fragmentation value and "after defrag action" frag value in an audit table.  This will be for all databases on the server.  I have completed the vast majority of it (cycling though all the databases, detecting which indexes need reorganising or rebuilding and inserting the information into a table) but I cannot get the audit values working properly.  For example, a sample row in my audit table would look like this:

ID Name DB Table frag_before frag_after

1 Index2 DB1 Table6 70.33456 0.03
2 Index7 DB1 Table9 45.98 1.2567etc

Transact SQL :: Index Maintenance / Defrag Fails On CDC Enabled Database - 2008 R2

Oct 18, 2012

We have a new database with cdc enabled on all of its tables.  This causes the index maintenance task to fail with following message:

"Executing the query "EXEC DBName.dbo.IndexDefrag_sp" failed with the following error:  "The unique index 'PK_TableName' on source table '[dbo].[TableName]' is used by Change Data Capture.  To alter or drop the index, you must first disable Change Data Capture on the table.  The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted.".  Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly" We would like to run the index maintenance without losing the cdc data.  We plan on installing SP2 on SQL Server 2008 R2 soon, would that solve the issue?  Disabling the cdc prior to index maintenance and then re-enabling back upon completion; would delete the data as I found in most discussions, but we would like to retain it.

Index Corruption Not Getting Fixed By DBREINDEX

Jan 30, 2006

Rob writes "We have had an on-going problem in our production database. It appears to all be index corruption. We've opened a PSS with Microsoft, but I figured I'd post here also. We're getting 604,605 errors as well as DBCC CHECKDB errors. All reports are that either REPAIR_REBUILD or REPAIR_FAST will fix the problem. Since putting the database into single_user mode is not an option at this time, we've just been rebuilding the problem indexes with DBCC DBREINDEX. This typically fixes the problem. Microsoft PSS says they believe that it's hardware problems. We're in the process of updating firmware on our storage device. (MSA 1000) This is a clustered machine. Tonight, our index rebuilds completed successfully, but a DBCC CHECKTABLE failed with 8951 and 8955 errors with the REPAIR_FAST option being supplied. I've rebuilt all the indexes on the table, but the DBCC CHECKTABLE still reports with errors. As a test, I DTS'd a copy of this table to make sure that I would at least be able to run a select * on it. That worked okay. My question is the following: Does the repair option for DBCC CHECKDB/TABLE do something that DBCC DBREINDEX doesn't? Thanks in advance! Rob P.S. This is a Siebel environment. :("

Defrag Or Not To Defrag

Mar 14, 2007

I have been reading many things on the internet and I wanted to create a thread asking my question here. We currently do all the re-indexing and show contig's etc to maintain my sql data and to ensure everything is good to go there.

My question is, what about the physical drive and data. We house our mdf's on a raid 1_0 and our ldfs on raid 5. I am wondering if I need to defrag these drives b/c if not am i impacting my I/O on that box. If so should I stop the sql service so that it does not corrupt SQL data? Any help on this topic would be great.

Defrag SQL SERVER

Feb 13, 2004

Folks

Our sql server machine is badly in need of a defrag however I'm a bit weary of doing this as I'm really not sure of the implications or indeed how to do it.

I'm really not a server type of person so any assistance would be gratefully received. If anyone can explain it to me like I'm a 5 year old then that would probably be best!

Database Defrag

Jul 14, 2004

Hello,
I am working with a very large db (850+gig) that is in desperate need of defragging. I am familiar with DBCC Reindex and DBCC IndexDefrag but am concerned that these processes will take an extremely long time to run. Has anyone had any experience with any 3rd party tools that better/faster then DBCC? Or any ideas or suggestions how best to attack this? Among the many tables with large footprints and millions of rows, I have 3 tables with reserved space over 100g also 3 tables with over 500Mil rows (1 tbl with > 1bil rows). This is a 24x7 db.

Thanks in advance for any ideas and suggestions

Defrag / Reindex

Oct 21, 2007

I#ve been doing disaster recovery on a web box that died today.

So I thought I'd do some "downtime" maintenance on the DB server

I ran a BDREINDEX on all tables, all indexes. (I know this is the 2000 way, but I assume its as good as the proper 2005 way??).

5 minutes on a 10GB database. Not bad!

I checked the DEFRAG and UPDATE STATS processes that run overnight.

They are basically defragging only tables with SHOWCONTIG indicating fragmentation. And then doing an UPDATE STATISTICS WITH FULLSCAN on all tables

That is taking an average of 30 minutes ...

Is DBREINDEX the equivalent of an UPDATE STATISTICS WITH FULLSCAN, or is it in some way a smaller-sample version?

I'm wondering why I don't just lock the DB and do a REINDEX of everything in 5 minutes ...

Automating Table Defrag

May 26, 1999

I'd like to build a process that will identify all the tables in a database with a scan density less than 100% and generate 'dbcc dbreindex' statements for them.

Defrag Table With No Clustered Idx

Aug 22, 2007

Is there any easy way to defrag a table with no clustered idx other than bcp out then back in ? (SQL 2000)Actually I have a 100GB db that I deleted data from other tables, about 10GB worth, but access to the table in question (38GB) seems to have slowed down dramatically, Or does the entire disk need to be defragmented and a bcp out/in would be a waste of time on this table ?I run an index defrag every night, reindex weekly.Thanks.

YADS -- Yet Another Defrag Script

Oct 2, 2007

This script was based on the original posted here: http://sql-server-performance.com/Community/forums/p/20584/114940.aspx#114940

I use the REORGANIZE option of ALTER INDEX. It's default is ONLINE, no matter what the engine edition and makes for simpler code.

I also make heavy use of my own logging tables, which are included at the bottom of the sp.

Please, feel free to comment. I like getting feedback about my scripts and it seems rarely that happens...

DBREINDEX - More

Jan 8, 2002

I ran the dbreindex using query analyzer (on the tables mentioned in my previous posting - 1/7/02) and still the scan density remains at 50%.
I do not understand why the dbreindex is not reorging these tables to a
higher scan density.
I used a fill factor of 90%.

DBREINDEX

Dec 17, 2001

HI,

I have a database at 30GB, with 'FULL' recovery model. The transaction log backup after a DBREINDEX job on this database is creating a very huge backup file. Any Idea how can I avoid such a huge backup file.

I have tried to change the recovery model to 'Bulk_logged' before DBREINDEX and changed it back to 'FULL'. That sure helped me to avoid the growth of log file. But, that did not help me to reduce the size of the transactional log backup file.

Regards
Chakri

Dbcc Dbreindex

Jan 7, 2002

We are new to SQL Server and we are currently setting up a job that
does a dbreindex for tables that need it. I got the scripts for this
from swynk. 50 of the tables that needed a dbreindex,
(under 90% scan density) were not impacted by running the dbreindex.
I.e., I ran the dbreindex and it left it at 50% scan density.
The fill factor for these tables is set to 100%.
I tried update stats, updateusage...nothing changes....
I am sure there must be a logical reason as to why the dbreindex
had no impact on these tables. Does any one have any info on this?
Thanks in advance!

DBCC DBREINDEX

Does any one have any idea how much time it might take for the clustered index?
I heard that this process might take more time and for one of my friends it ran for more than 40 hours.
I don;t have so much if time as th DB has to go for production to night and if not it might effect our businees.
I cancelled DBCC DBREINDEX before by killing the process and the master.DAT file got corrupted.I had to restore everytihng. Does anyone know any work around?
Help appreciated.

Thanks.

DBCC DBREINDEX ?

Aug 14, 2001

Hi,
I wanted to know is DBCC DBREINDEX is a logged operation?
The reason why I am asking this is, Whenever we create an index or drop an existing it is a logged operation. Is this the same when we do DBCC DBREINDEX? Is it drops existing indexes and creates new indexes. My concern here is about transaction log. If I run a DBCC DBREINDEX on a huge table with lot of indexes, Is it going to fill transaction log?

Any help is appreciated!

Thank you,
Ravi.
