    Yes. They will be offline index rebuilds, meaning that changes to the index/table could be blocked during the operation.

    As noted above blocking will occur during the index rebuild of each index/table. Overall performance may be seen since these involve I/O operations. You will generally do these during your maintenance windows for the server or application.

    While maintenance plans are the easier way to implement index maintenance, and are better than nothing, it would be advised to look at using customized scripts. The maintenance plan offers little customization as to which indexes actually need to be rebuilt or not. Ola Hallengren offers the most used scripts for index and statistics maintenance of a database.

    As with the other question you asked on the other post about indexes and because these are starting to sound a whole lot like interview questions or "university" questions, you really need to buckle down and spend some time in "Books Online" so that you truly understand the answers to your questions.

    For this one, look up "Alter Index" and then do a search for "REBUILD". Also take a look at the script in the examples, study it, and learn from it.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
