May be your indexes can be maintain through reorganize, in such case why u want delete reorganize step it will take less time and less systems resources.You can maintain it by some calculation on sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats dmv, it is suggested that if your index is fragmented by less then 30 %, u can use reorganize else if it more than 30 % the u should use Rebuild index.RAQ Report: Web-based Excel-like Java reporting tool |
