Agreed, re-indexing is one of several things that should be automated on your db server from the getgo.

'It's something that should be scheduled and automated.'
True, if you have the window to do it - not always possible without affecting the system's usage.

Databases are not self-healing animals, they require maintenance windows, period. I usually do weekly
online
re-indexing between 3-5AM on a Sunday morning, after the Sunday backups have taken place. In that way, I don't affect my U.S. systems adversely, even the 24/7 databases. For overseas databases i adjust accordingly.

Catch-22. Not doing it will likely affect the "system's usage", as well.
