  • How to Find the Amount of Fragmentation on Your SQL Server Instance

    Need to find the amount of fragmentation in all your indexes in all databases for a given instance of SQL Server 2005 or later? You can use the undocumented/unsupported sp_MSforeachdb to loop through all the databases. For more information on fragmentation see my previous blog http://blogs.msdn.com/cindygross/archive/2009/11/20/sql-server-and-fragmentation.aspx.

    — find fragmentation on all indexes in all databases on this instances

    — to find fragmentation on just one db comment out the exec master… line and the last quote

    — you must use the db_id() rather than NULL as the first parameter of the DMV or it will try to do a join across all dbs

    SELECT @@SERVERNAME, @@VERSION, GETDATE() as BatchStartTime

    exec master.sys.sp_MSforeachdb ‘ USE [?];

     

    DECLARE @starttime datetime, @endtime datetime

    SELECT @starttime = GETDATE()

    SELECT db_name() as CurrentDB, @starttime as DBStartTime

    SELECT db_name() as DatabaseName, OBJECT_NAME (a.object_id, DB_ID()) as ObjectName,

    a.index_id, b.name as IndexName,

    avg_fragmentation_in_percent, page_count, index_depth, index_type_desc, alloc_unit_type_desc

    — , record_count, avg_page_space_used_in_percent –(null in limited)

    FROM sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats (db_id(), NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL) AS a

    JOIN sys.indexes AS b

    ON a.object_id = b.object_id AND a.index_id = b.index_id

    –WHERE index_id > 0 — exclude heaps

    ORDER BY DatabaseName asc, avg_fragmentation_in_percent desc, ObjectName asc, IndexName asc

    SELECT @endtime = GETDATE()

    SELECT @starttime as StartTime, @endtime as EndTime, DATEDIFF(MINUTE,@starttime,@endtime) as TotalMinutes
