We used to run it frequently, daily, half-daily, and by shift. But, with a fragmentation index. The first time was slow, but each subsequent run sped up.

Online rarely needed it. - Too busy driving to stop for gas! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
