Not an option for partition indexes. Other than that, I've had pleasant experiences with it.

So I'm finally able to implement procedures for index rebuilds. I plan on using the ONLINE option for our 8.1.7.2.0 DB, so I hit Metalink to search for possible problems. The only major problem I see is pre-8.1.7.1 where the ONLINE option on an ALTER INDEX REBUILD can actually corrupt the index.

Since that shouldn't be a concern with our current patch level, does anyone know of a reason to avoid using ONLINE?

TIA!
