What should you do?
You work as a database administrator at Domain.com. Domain.com is using a SQL Server
2008 instance that contains a database. During monitoring, you notice that the following Transact-SQL query is running slow:
SELECT VideoTitle, UpcNum, RetailPrice, Release Date FROM Srvideo.VideoTitle WITH
(INDEX(0)) WHERE ReleaseDate BETWEEN ‘20050401’ AND ‘20050510’
With regards to the output, a clustered index exists on the VideoTitle column. Furthermore there is
a nonclustered index on the ReleaseDate column that has the UpcNum and RetailPrice columns.
You also notice that the avg_fragmentation_in_percent is 30 percent, when you explore the
sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats dynamic management function (DMF) or the VideoTitle table.
You have recievewd instructions to find the method to resolve the problem.
