Greetings,
While loading data into Sql Server using BCP utility,
we have to explicitly need to drop the indexes. then after loading the
data we recreate them. I just want to know if this is possible through
some other ways. i mean in DB2 we have an option of index rebuild
option which takes care of this job.
Do we have anything as such in BCP or is there some other way?
Any help will be appreciated
TIA

SQL Server has also a rebuildindex option, but in your case probably
somenone has decided to drop the index in order to speed up the
inserts. Ans once dropped you can't rebuild the index you have to
re-create.
In SQL2005 you have the option to disable non-clustered indexes during
bcp actions, but in 2000 you can't.

can i get some link for SQL2005 bcp utility????
Thanx for the reply. One thing, i went through the docs of bcp utility
i didnt find any option for rebuilding the index.
Can you tell me the exact way of using it in bcp utility?
TIA

BCP does not have any feature to rebuild indexes. You create the indexes
with the regular T-SQL commands.
I have to do something like this quarterly.
The part I haven't bothered to automate yet is the script used to create the
indexes.
(That and dropping them... someday I'll script these parts.)
However, the rest is.
Basically I have a CMD file that I run at the OS level that truncate tables
in question.
Then it BCP's the data in and the calls OSQL to run scripts on the tables in
question to rebuild the indexes.
Basically it takes me about 1/2 hour of prep work (script out indexes incase
they've changed since last quarter), drop them, and then run the batch file
and walk away.

Hi,
I want to find out what is a good way to identify indexes that need
rebuilding. I tried to run DBCC showcontig and identify them based on
the scan density %. And according to a Microsoft Tech Net - All About
SQL Server Indexes discussion, the expert stated that based on the
Density (below 20%), I can pick out those indexes associated to the
table and run DBCC INDEXDEFRAG. But instead, I ran DBCC DBREINDEX to
rebuild all indexes...

Hi group,
I have a table say with 10000 records and 10 columns initially, I
created an index say i1, after few days I altered the table by adding
10 new columns and 90000 rows of records summing up to 100000 records.
My doubt is regarding the index is Do I have to create a new index ? or
can I use the same index which I created first, or do I have to make
any changes to existing index like rebuild etc...?

I thought I would delve into index fragmentation and I found some
great sql from many posters (thanks Erland!).
My question is how bad is bad? I know this is very subjective.
Some scripts I found would reindex if the LogicalFragmenation is over
30%.
I have some tables that are 98% (I'm guessing really bad). I know it
all depends..
more as a learning point: I found a table that had over 30%
logicalfragmentation, I dropped the indexes,...

I am extracting data from an operational system in order to maintain a mirror that can be used for reporting.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
