  • RE: Index defragmentation

    I was thinking in terms of giant terabyte dbs, I guess. 🙂 Anyway, no index has a page_count higher than 21 from what I can see in sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats.

  • RE: Index defragmentation

    All our tables are relatively small -- the biggest has about 266,000 rows. So you think I shouldn't be too worried about it then? I appreciate the feedback.

    Thanks!

    Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum were not characters in Independence Day. They are actors who *played* characters in Independence Day. The characters were Steven Hiller and David Levinson....

  • RE: Sort Order - Include Null al last

    Looks like I'm not alone in thinking we need some kind of editorial review over these Q&As, eh? I know English isn't everyone's first language, so I don't mean...

  • RE: RESEED in SQL 2000 and SQL 2005/2008

  • RE: RESEED in SQL 2000 and SQL 2005/2008

    This has been a headache for me, not knowing whether a table is going to reseed at 1 (virgin) or 2. Every technique I've tried to determine the "virginity"...

    Good script! This would be perfect for me if it included one additional item: Re-initializing all identity fields to 1. I can do it table-by-table but if there's...
