Actually, I agree that you don't "need" to reorg indexes in either database, but reorgs of indexes do have some benefits after a lot of update activity. Index rows are maintained in the exact index order, but page splits, and location of new pages that are not in correct physical sequence may occur. I agree that this is not critical in either database, and most DBA's ignore it. Received on Sun Nov 27 2005 - 10:13:35 CST
