  • Query tuning is largely the same as in more recent versions as regards query execution plans, etc.

    If you are unfamiliar with the SQL 2000 tuning wizard, I wrote a walk through article about it here: http://www.sqlwatchmen.com/articles/indexes.aspx. It just covers the basics and using the 2000 version of the tools like Profiler, etc.

  • Thanks Jim

    I am looking for any approach that using DBCC showcontig properly.

    Thanks In advance

  • Showcontig has nothing to do with index tuning. Index maintenance, yes, but not index tuning.

    Tuning refers to creating and altering indexes to support the workload. Maintenance is rebuilding as necessary and that's what showcontig helps with.
