Rebuild & Reorg Indexes in SQL Server
Hi All,
I tried to defrag my indexes on a particular table by trying REBUILD(DBREBUILD) & REORG(INDEXDEFRAG).
Don't know the reason it is taking more time to execute and I tried to see how much timeit may take, I Observer even after like 2 hrs of start time, it keep on executing.
What might be the reason and how can I get rid of this and defrag my Indexes?
I have to Defrag those Indexes, as we have user reporting about the reports taking more time to execute.
Will it work if I try to schecule a REORGNIZE the Indexes using the Maintanence Paln?

Which operation are you running?
ASKER
I tried first running REBUILD & waited to see until 1hr,
After I tried REORG and still it is keep on executing form 2hrs.
So stopped that too & found only 39% completed.

Rebuild is an offline operation, so it will block all table operations. Don't run during busy times. How large is your db?
ASKER
Yes, I runnned it in the night during our window timings only and since it is taking a while, I thought of giving a try with Reorg as it is a online operation.
