Hello,
I have a very fragmented database and am running dbcc dbreindex but
getting a very odd issue.
When running DBCC SHOWCONTIG before and after reindexing the tables,
there is no difference in the statistics. The scan fragmentation levels
(in fact all of the statistics) are exactly the same.
How can this be?
I've also run the indexdefrag command and it gives exactly the same
results before and after.
Am i doing something very wrong??

Cheers in advance,
j

Hi,

Based on the SHOWCONTIG result; take a look into Scan Density, Login scan
and Extend scan fragmentation.

Read this article; this help you to analyze more:-

Do you have any clustered indexes on the tables involved?
