Find the size of all Indexes in a database

,

Continuing with my interest with Indexes, I wrote this script to find the size of all indexes in a database along with the table and the filegroup on which the index resides. I have used the AdventureWorks2012 database as an example. Please replace the DB name for which you want to find the information. The output of the script as below.

USE AdventureWorks2012
go
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#Indexdata', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE #Indexdata
 
DECLARE
@SizeofIndex BIGINT, @IndexID INT,
@NameOfIndex nvarchar(200),@TypeOfIndex nvarchar(50),
@ObjectID INT,@IsPrimaryKey INT,
@FGroup VARCHAR(20)
 
create table #Indexdata (name nvarchar(50),
IndexID int, IndexName nvarchar(200),
SizeOfIndex int, IndexType nvarchar(50),
IsPrimaryKey INT,FGroup VARCHAR(20))
DECLARE Indexloop CURSOR FOR
SELECT idx.object_id, idx.index_id, idx.name, idx.type_desc
,idx.is_primary_key,fg.name
FROM sys.indexes idx
join sys.objects so
on idx.object_id = so.object_id JOIN sys.filegroups fg
ON idx.data_space_id = fg.data_space_id
where idx.type_desc != 'Heap'
and so.type_desc not in ('INTERNAL_TABLE','SYSTEM_TABLE')
 
OPEN Indexloop
 
FETCH NEXT FROM Indexloop
INTO @ObjectID, @IndexID, @NameOfIndex,
@TypeOfIndex,@IsPrimaryKey,@FGroup
 
WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS = 0)
BEGIN
SELECT @SizeofIndex = sum(avg_record_size_in_bytes * record_count)
FROM sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats(DB_ID(),@ObjectID,
@IndexID, NULL, 'detailed')
 
insert into #Indexdata(name, IndexID, IndexName, SizeOfIndex,
IndexType,IsPrimaryKey,FGroup)
SELECT TableName = OBJECT_NAME(@ObjectID),
IndexID = @IndexID,
IndexName = @NameOfIndex,
SizeOfIndex = CONVERT(DECIMAL(16,1),(@SizeofIndex/(1024.0 * 1024))),
IndexType = @TypeOfIndex,
IsPrimaryKey = @IsPrimaryKey,
FGroup = @FGroup
 
FETCH NEXT FROM Indexloop
INTO @ObjectID, @IndexID, @NameOfIndex,
 @TypeOfIndex,@IsPrimaryKey,@FGroup
END
CLOSE Indexloop
DEALLOCATE Indexloop
 
select name as TableName, IndexName, IndexType,
SizeOfIndex AS [Size of index(MB)],
case when IsPrimaryKey = 1 then 'Yes' else 'No' End as [IsPrimaryKey]
,FGroup AS [File Group]
from #Indexdata order by SizeOfIndex DESC
