maintenance

Does maintenance can reduce time to perform request ?
I'm using sql server 2000 sp3 on windows 2003 server. My server worked well and became so long day after day. Does it normal ?
Does maintenance can reduce access time request ? Can I do maintenance when server is working ?
Regards,
It is quite natural for performance to degrade over time as indexes become fragmented and forwarding pointers become more prevalent. These issues need to be maintained using DBCC INDEXDEFRAG (online) or DBCC DBREINDEX (offline). Have a look in BOL for fur
ther syntax details.

|||Hi,
Performance will go down once the fragmentation become more. Fragmentation
occurs due to the modifications in table data with DML (Insert/upate
/delete).
How will you identify table is fragmented:
DBCC SHOWCONTIG('table_name')
Below is my maintenance schedule:
Daily - UPDATE STATISTICS
Weekly - DBCC DBREINDEX
Weekly :- DBCC CHECKDB, DBCC CHECKALLOC,DBCC CTALOG
I recommend you to do the maintenance when there is very less user activity.
Thanks
