Update statistics

  • During maintenance plans (means dbcc checkdb,update statistics and index rebuild) will increase I/O workload?

    Thanks

  • Yes, all this operations are generating much IO, and should be performed during a maintenance window

  • depends on how big your tables/indexes/stats are. For example I have an instance with 15 dbs on it, each db around 5-6gb in size and updating stats using sp_updatestats takes < 1 min in total. If done during a maint window is it really going to cause much of a problem?

  • checkdb and index rebuild are I/O intensive.
