Hi all,I am setting up monthly maintenance plan for my sql server. So far i have only setup clean job history and clean backup files.I am thinking if it is advisable to setup the following maintenance job monthly on probably a weekend morning.-- 1 plan (2 steps) step1-> check db integrity + step2-> update index statistics q1) is it advisable to do the above job monthly ?q2) when checking db integrity, is checking user databases sufficient, or both system and user databases ?q3) for update index statistics, should we use a full scan ? or 50% sampling will do ?should we also update index statistics for system databases ? or just user databases will do ?I am not very sure if the app team will create larger table/large index in future.. is it advisable to update statistics ? -- if we do not update statistics, does that mean the statistics will be stale as of the time the index is created ?q4) is it advisable to do any index reorganization or rebuild ? - i am quite worried about doing such operations.I have 4 user databases and they add up to be around 80GB, the largest user db is around 40GB.Hope to hear from you gurus soon.Regards,Noob
