Parameters
Databases
Select databases. The keywords SYSTEM_DATABASES, USER_DATABASES, and ALL_DATABASES are supported. The hyphen character (-) is used to exclude databases, and the percent character (%) is used for wildcard selection. All of these operations can be combined by using the comma (,).
Value | Description |
---|---|
SYSTEM_DATABASES | All system databases (master, msdb, and model) |
USER_DATABASES | All user databases |
ALL_DATABASES | All databases |
Db1 | The database Db1 |
Db1, Db2 | The databases Db1 and Db2 |
USER_DATABASES, -Db1 | All user databases, except Db1 |
%Db% | All databases that have “Db” in the name |
%Db%, -Db1 | All databases that have “Db” in the name, except Db1 |
ALL_DATABASES, -%Db% | All databases that do not have “Db” in the name |
FragmentationLow
Specify index maintenance operations to be performed on a low-fragmented index.
Value | Description |
---|---|
INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE | Rebuild index online. |
INDEX_REBUILD_OFFLINE | Rebuild index offline. |
INDEX_REORGANIZE | Reorganize index. |
INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE,INDEX_REBUILD_OFFLINE | Rebuild index online. Rebuild index offline if online rebuilding is not supported on an index. |
INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE,INDEX_REORGANIZE | Rebuild index online. Reorganize index if online rebuilding is not supported on an index. |
INDEX_REORGANIZE,INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE,INDEX_REBUILD_OFFLINE | Reorganize index. Rebuild index online if reorganizing is not supported on an index. Rebuild index offline if reorganizing and online rebuilding are not supported on an index. |
NULL | Do not perform index maintenance. This is the default for a low-fragmented index. |
An online index rebuild or an index reorganization is not always possible. Because of this, you can specify multiple index-maintenance operations for each fragmentation group. These operations are prioritized from left to right: If the first operation is supported for the index, then that operation is used; if the first operation is not supported, then the second operation is used (if supported), and so on. If none of the specified operations are supported for an index, then that index is not maintained.
IndexOptimize uses the SQL Server ALTER INDEX command: REBUILD WITH (ONLINE = ON) to rebuild indexes online, REBUILD WITH (ONLINE = OFF) to rebuild indexes offline, and REORGANIZE to reorganize indexes.
FragmentationMedium
Specify index maintenance operations to be performed on a medium-fragmented index.
Value | Description |
---|---|
INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE | Rebuild index online. |
INDEX_REBUILD_OFFLINE | Rebuild index offline. |
INDEX_REORGANIZE | Reorganize index. |
INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE,INDEX_REBUILD_OFFLINE | Rebuild index online. Rebuild index offline if online rebuilding is not supported on an index. |
INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE,INDEX_REORGANIZE | Rebuild index online. Reorganize index if online rebuilding is not supported on an index. |
INDEX_REORGANIZE,INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE,INDEX_REBUILD_OFFLINE | Reorganize index. Rebuild index online if reorganizing is not supported on an index. Rebuild index offline if reorganizing and online rebuilding are not supported on an index. This is the default for a medium-fragmented index. |
NULL | Do not perform index maintenance. |
An online index rebuild or an index reorganization is not always possible. Because of this, you can specify multiple index-maintenance operations for each fragmentation group. These operations are prioritized from left to right: If the first operation is supported for the index, then that operation is used; if the first operation is not supported, then the second operation is used (if supported), and so on. If none of the specified operations are supported for an index, then that index is not maintained.
IndexOptimize uses the SQL Server ALTER INDEX command: REBUILD WITH (ONLINE = ON) to rebuild indexes online, REBUILD WITH (ONLINE = OFF) to rebuild indexes offline, and REORGANIZE to reorganize indexes.
FragmentationHigh
Specify index maintenance operations to be performed on a high-fragmented index.
Value | Description |
---|---|
INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE | Rebuild index online. |
INDEX_REBUILD_OFFLINE | Rebuild index offline. |

INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE,INDEX_REORGANIZE | Rebuild index online. Reorganize index if online rebuilding is not supported on an index. |
INDEX_REORGANIZE,INDEX_REBUILD_ONLINE,INDEX_REBUILD_OFFLINE | Reorganize index. Rebuild index online if reorganizing is not supported on an index. Rebuild index offline if reorganizing and online rebuilding are not supported on an index. |
NULL | Do not perform index maintenance. |
An online index rebuild or an index reorganization is not always possible. Because of this, you can specify multiple index-maintenance operations for each fragmentation group. These operations are prioritized from left to right: If the first operation is supported for the index, then that operation is used; if the first operation is not supported, then the second operation is used (if supported), and so on. If none of the specified operations are supported for an index, then that index is not maintained.
IndexOptimize uses the SQL Server ALTER INDEX command: REBUILD WITH (ONLINE = ON) to rebuild indexes online, REBUILD WITH (ONLINE = OFF) to rebuild indexes offline, and REORGANIZE to reorganize indexes.
FragmentationLevel1
Set the lower limit, as a percentage, for medium fragmentation. The default is 5 percent. This is based on Microsoft’s recommendation in Books Online.
IndexOptimize checks avg_fragmentation_in_percent in sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats to determine the fragmentation.
FragmentationLevel2
Set the lower limit, as a percentage, for high fragmentation. The default is 30 percent. This is based on Microsoft’s recommendation in Books Online.
IndexOptimize checks avg_fragmentation_in_percent in sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats to determine the fragmentation.
PageCountLevel
Set a size, in pages; indexes with fewer pages are skipped for index maintenance. The default is 1000 pages. This is based on Microsoft’s recommendation in this white paper.
IndexOptimize checks page_count in sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats to determine the size of the index.
SortInTempdb
Use tempdb for sort operations when rebuilding indexes.
Value | Description |
---|---|
Y | Use tempdb for sort operations when rebuilding indexes. |
N | Do not use tempdb for sort operations when rebuilding indexes. This is the default. |
The SortInTempdb option in IndexOptimize uses the SORT_IN_TEMPDB option in the SQL Server ALTER INDEX command.
MaxDOP
Specify the number of CPUs to use when rebuilding indexes. If this number is not specified, the global maximum degree of parallelism is used.
The MaxDOP option in IndexOptimize uses the MAXDOP option in the SQL Server ALTER INDEX command.
FillFactor
Indicate, as a percentage, how full the pages should be made when rebuilding indexes. If a percentage is not specified, the fill factor in sys.indexes is used.
The FillFactor option in IndexOptimize uses the FILLFACTOR option in the SQL Server ALTER INDEX command.
PadIndex
Apply the percentage of free space that the fill factor specifies to the intermediate-level pages of the index.
Value | Description |
---|---|
Y | Apply the percentage of free space that the fill factor specifies to the intermediate-level pages of the index. |
N | The intermediate-level pages of the index are filled to near capacity. This is the default. |
The PadIndex option in IndexOptimize uses the PADINDEX option in the SQL Server ALTER INDEX command.
LOBCompaction
Compact pages that contain large object (LOB) columns, when reorganizing indexes.
Value | Description |
---|---|
Y | Compact pages that contain LOB columns, when reorganizing indexes. This is the default. |
N | Do not compact pages that contain LOB columns, when reorganizing indexes. |
The LOBCompaction option in IndexOptimize uses the LOB_COMPACTION option in the SQL Server ALTER INDEX command.
UpdateStatistics
Update statistics.
Value | Description |
---|---|
ALL | Update index and column statistics. |
INDEX | Update index statistics. |
COLUMNS | Update column statistics. |
NULL | Do not perform statistics maintenance. This is the default. |
IndexOptimize uses the SQL Server UPDATE STATISTICS command to update statistics.
OnlyModifiedStatistics
Update statistics only if any rows have been modified since the most recent statistics update.
Value | Description |
---|---|
Y | Update statistics only if any rows have been modified since the most recent statistics update. |
N | Update statistics regardless of whether any rows have been modified. |
IndexOptimize checks modification_counter in sys.dm_db_stats_properties, in SQL Server 2008 R2 starting with Service Pack 2 and in SQL Server 2012 starting with Service Pack 1, to determine whether any rows have been modified since the most recent statistics update. In earlier versions it checks rowmodctr in sys.sysindexes.
StatisticsSample
Indicate, as a percentage, how much of a table is gathered when updating statistics. A value of 100 is equivalent to a full scan. If no value is specified, then SQL Server automatically computes the required sample.
The StatisticsSample option in IndexOptimize uses the SAMPLE and FULLSCAN options in the SQL Server UPDATE STATISTICS command.
StatisticsResample
Update statistics with the most recent sample.
Value | Description |
---|---|
Y | Update statistics with the most recent sample. |
N | Let SQL Server automatically compute the required sample. This is the default. |
The StatisticsResample option in IndexOptimize uses the RESAMPLE option in the SQL Server UPDATE STATISTICS command.
You cannot combine the options StatisticsSample and StatisticsResample.
PartitionLevel
Maintain partitioned indexes on the partition level. If this parameter is set to Y, the fragmentation level and page count is checked for each partition. The appropriate index maintenance (reorganize or rebuild) is then performed for each partition.
Value | Description |
---|---|
Y | Maintain partitioned indexes on the partition level. This is the default. |
N | Maintain partitioned indexes on the index level. |
MSShippedObjects
Maintain indexes and statistics on objects that are created by internal SQL Server components.
Value | Description |
---|---|
Y | Maintain indexes and statistics on objects that are created by internal SQL Server components. |
N | Do not maintain indexes and statistics on objects that are created by internal SQL Server components. This is the default. |
IndexOptimize checks is_ms_shipped in sys.objects to determine whether an object was created by an internal SQL Server component.
Indexes
Select indexes. If this parameter is not specified, all indexes are selected. The ALL_INDEXES keyword is supported. The hyphen character (-) is used to exclude indexes, and the percent character (%) is used for wildcard selection. All these operations can be combined by using the comma (,).
Value | Description |
---|---|
ALL_INDEXES | All indexes |
Db1.Schema1.Tbl1.Idx1 | The index Idx1 on the object Schema1.Tbl1 in the database Db1 |

Execution
Execute the stored procedures from SQL Server Agent CmdExec jobs, using sqlcmd and the -b option. Pass the parameters to the stored procedures by name:
sqlcmd -E -S $(ESCAPE_SQUOTE(SRVR)) -d master -Q "EXECUTE dbo.IndexOptimize @Databases = 'USER_DATABASES'" -b
Use SQL Server Agent output files to ensure that you always have a full set of information, in case of an error.
You can use the MaintenanceSolution.sql script to install the SQL Server Maintenance Solution. Then the sqlcmd commands and the output files will be configured for you.
