Hi,

Please let me know how to perform ConfigMgr Database re-index.
And is there any backup of database required before the ConfigMgr Database re-index.

Regards,
Boopathi

    AFAIK Ola Hallengren's script is still one of the best ways to achieve this. Here is an install guide from Garth Jones

    I would backup the database prior.

    Hi @Boopathi S ,

    Thanks for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    To enable the Database Rebuild Index, we could go through this path: Site > Site Maintenance > Edit the Maintenance task

    For more details, we could refer to the following articles:

    2. Maintenance task: Rebuild Index
      https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/core/servers/manage/reference-for-maintenance-tasks#rebuild-indexes

    Hope the above information can help you.
