Guys,

I have 200GB database which is replicated, the secondary database is subjected to searches (read only) operations. Each day there are up to 500k (up to 200k of them are deletes) transactions that are replicated real time. How should the index maintainence plan be setup since all the transactions are replicated agent, is index rebuild advisable on each night to maintain the reponse times of the searches consistently.

Any suggestions and inputs would be hlep

Thanks

Depends how long your index rebuild takes, but if you are seeing a lot of fragmentation, you may want to defrag the top 10% or so. Do the full index rebuilds once a week.
