  • RE: Fragmenation level after restoration

    The restored DB is exactly the same as the old DB. Restore does not change table fragmentation in any way

    What's changed is how fragmentation is calculated. SQL 2000 and SQL...

  • RE: Fragmenation level after restoration

    A restore recreates the DB exactly as it was at time of backup. If an index is fragmented at time of backup, it'll be fragmented in the restored database.

  • RE: Rollback of a Transaction
