    Index rebuilds don't get written into the SQL Server error log. You could add a piece to your maintenance tasks to log that a rebuild was done if you like, or run a trace or set up an extended events session.

    Ok, so it doesn't get written into the sql server log. Nice to know

    Thank you very much!!

    Just to clarify, what Gail's repeated above is that the Index Rebuild WILL be written into the log file (.ldf) that's attached to the database. That's not human readable, unfortunately.

    Welll....... I can read it. Mostly. 🙂

    I'm still not entirely convinced you're not a Turing Complete database with the amount of knowledge you inhale for fun, though... 😛 I shouldn't pick on ya much for it though, I certainly benefit a lot from your knowledge. 😎
