Indexes

    One of our nice developers has managed to create over 300 indexes with a fill factor of 90 (good eh) on a db that is about 15Gb in size. I would like to drop all the indexes and recreate them with a fill factor of 10. Can anyone give me a hand in scripting this.

    Answered my own question.

    Here it is

    This query creates a script which you then need to run the results of

    select 'drop index ' + object_name(id) + '.' + [name] from sysindexes

    where OrigFillFactor = 90

    and NOT (([name] like '_W%') or ([name] like 'A_%'))

    Atleast SQL Optimiser won't have to look long and hard for an index.

    Sorry, had to throw in my ten cents worth...

    I think dbcc dbreindex with the fillfactor option could do well here too (except you would have to run dbcc for each table in your database).

    So what fill factor do you want, and why? Just trying to get a better understanding.

    Thanks,
