It is good advice for version 7. Beginning with 8 oracle rebuilds in = the
same tablespace. Of cource if you need to move index to another = tablespace
you shpuld use tablspace clouse.

I would recommend adding tablespace name... to keep it in same = tablespace.

'alter index schema.my_index rebuild tablespace tablespace_name;'

Am I right in saying that in case the tablespace is not given then the = index
is recreated in the default tablespace of the user....

-Rahul

Sorry, slip of the finger, you must specify the index name,

In version 7.3 and above tablespaces are automatically coalesced, but = if you
mean to defragment the index, use the

alter index schema.my_table rebuild

Which will recreate the index by reading the previous index. You can = also
change the storage sizes and tablespace if you want to during the = rebuild.
The default is to rebuild with the same storage and tablespace as the previous index.

I'd like to know when should I colaesce an index?

When should I rebuild it?
What views should I be looking at?

thank you
