  Ok so this is driving me nuts.  My syntax is incorrect on this statement:

  create index IX_Service_Start_Date ON ivc_cds.CDS_Claim_Header (Service_Start_Date ) 
  WITH (FILLFACTOR = 98, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = ON ) on  ServiceStartDatePartitionScheme ( Service_Start_Date ) ON  [DefFG]

  Error:

  Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'ON'.

  I'm trying to create the above index on the filegroup DefFG.  I've tried moving the "On [DefFG]" around with no luck.  Can someone spot where this should go?

   

  Thanks!

  as that is a partitioned table you need to allocate the desired partition to the destination filegroup

  see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/statements/create-partition-scheme-transact-sql?view=sql-server-ver16

  create index IX_Service_Start_Date ON ivc_cds.CDS_Claim_Header (Service_Start_Date ) 
  WITH (FILLFACTOR = 98, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = ON ) ON  [DefFG]
  -- remove on  ServiceStartDatePartitionScheme ( Service_Start_Date ) 
  

  also have a look at "Partitioned tables and indexes"

  You specify either a partition or a filegroup, not both (if partition, the partitioning will determine the filegroup(s) used).

  create index IX_Service_Start_Date ON ivc_cds.CDS_Claim_Header (Service_Start_Date )

  WITH (FILLFACTOR = 98, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = ON ) on ServiceStartDatePartitionScheme ( Service_Start_Date );

  OR

  create index IX_Service_Start_Date ON ivc_cds.CDS_Claim_Header (Service_Start_Date )

  WITH (FILLFACTOR = 98, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = ON ) ON [DefFG];
