table and index fragmantation
Dears I have Oracle Database 19c RAC on Linux, I have a table that has a lot of deletes and updates causing this table and its indexes to be fragmented (i guess)
we noticed a poor performance and HIGH I/O on this table
running segment advisor report mentioned that :
enable row movement on table RECONDATA and perform shirnk estimated savings is 22GB,
the same was provided for the index
- does this means that i should do what is requested to enhance the performance of the table
- does shrinking the table enhance performance
- i know to defragmat the index we should rebuild the index , when this should be applied i.e when to know if i should rebuild the index what is the indication on fragmantation factor
