DBCC Reindex
      #396348 - Wed Jun 04 2008 07:35 PM

I use DBCC Reindex for internal fragmentation, but what about external fragmentation? Over time it seems performance is flying out the window like a witch on a broom and final users start complaining about the delays. It is a great irritation for me! What can I do?

Can you please explain what your post means?

Do you know that we're all in line for succession to the throne? Really?
Well, if forty-eight million, two hundred thousand, seven hundred and one people died I'd be Queen.

The re-index will arrange things to speed up the access of files because the "pointers" are organised for quick searches etc. But the files are still in actual fact in fragments so when users want to access files, it still takes too long and the delays in locating the data the users need, is growing. Its one thing to keep doing a reindex, but its not the solution...

I presume you are referring to a SQL Database on a server in a business environment. This forum is for personal users who do not have the luxury of an iT department or access to an iT professional. I will close this thread.
