Revised script to identify missing indexes

Remember NOT to simply apply all of these indexes without investigating frequency &/or similar indexes:

 

set concat_null_yields_null off

select
      'create index IX_' +

            replace(replace(replace (equality_columns, '[', ''),']',''),', ','_') +

            ' on ' +

            sch.name + '.' + obj.name +

            ' (' +

            equality_columns +

            case when inequality_columns is null

                                    then ''

                                    else ',' +  inequality_columns end +

            ')' +

            case when included_columns is not null then

                  ' include (' +

                  isnull(included_columns,'') +

                  ') ' else '' end +

            ' -- ' + convert (varchar, avg_user_impact) + '% anticipated impact'

      from sys.dm_db_missing_index_details mid join

                  sys.dm_db_missing_index_groups mig

                        on mid.index_handle = mig.index_handle          join

                  sys.dm_db_missing_index_group_stats migs

                        on migs.group_handle = mig.index_group_handle join

                        sys.objects obj on obj.object_id = mid.object_id join

                        sys.schemas sch on obj.schema_id = sch.schema_id

                       

       where db_name(database_id) = 'VPS'

                                   

                             and            avg_user_impact > 20

                             and equality_columns is not null

 

      order by obj.name, equality_columns

--       avg_user_impact desc
