Index compression script generation

I wrote ascript to generate script for non-clustered index page compression in SQL Server. I’ve since made improvements and here it is.

Highlights:

  • This script generates index compression script on a partition by partition basis, if the underlying index is partitioned;
  • Like the previous version, it still works for non-partitioned indexes;
  • Like the previous version, it compresses indexes from smallest to largest, progressively saving space as it nibbles forward. Therefore it is unlikely that it’ll grow data file(s) during rebuild;
  • Unlike the previous version, I’ve set maxdop = 0, which let’s SQL decides degree of parallelism;
  • There is no quick way, that I know of, to tell if an underlying index is partitioned. Hence the usage of two temp tables to differentiate the two for proper script generation.
IF Object_id('tempdb..#NonPartitionedIndex') IS NOT NULL 
  DROP TABLE #nonpartitionedindex 

SELECT object_id, 
       index_id 
INTO   #nonpartitionedindex 
FROM   sys.partitions 
WHERE  object_id > 255 
       AND data_compression IN ( 0, 1 ) -- Non-compressed 
       AND index_id > 1 
GROUP  BY object_id, 
          index_id 
HAVING Count(*) = 1 

IF Object_id('tempdb..#PartitionedIndex') IS NOT NULL 
  DROP TABLE #partitionedindex 

SELECT object_id, 
       index_id 
INTO   #partitionedindex 
FROM   sys.partitions 
WHERE  object_id > 255 
       AND data_compression IN ( 0, 1 ) -- Non-compressed 
       AND index_id > 1 
GROUP  BY object_id, 
          index_id
