Hi Guys,
Does anyone know of any tricks to replace primary key indexes without using reindex? Or any other method that will not lock the table for an extended amount of time on 8.4?
I've got a bloated primary key index on a table and I'd like to try and clean it up without downtime.
A quick search turned up the following thread that mentioned a possible patch, but I couldn't find much else.
