Seems like something got updated in a newer ruleset - but it still doesn't work for partitioned tables. Now it sums all the fragmentation numbers up for the partitions so I have over 100% fragmented
Ok, me and @ClaudioESSilva spent some time this afternoon looking into how this could be resolved and it looks like the following two changes would resolve this issue and allow the SQL Assessment to be more informative and correct when running against environments with partitioned tables.
Changing the probe query and the message for the IndexFragmentation
check.
https://github.com/microsoft/sql-server-samples/blob/265be936565289d894e8c7817de3bbaf167d1e3c/samples/manage/sql-assessment-api/ruleset.json#L5259
Change to include a spot for partitionNumber
(this only contains text if the table is partitioned)
"message": "Remove fragmentation of @{IndexFullName} index@{partitionNumber} Current fragmentation level is @{fragmentation:#0.##}%",
There are two queries depending on the version of the SQL Instance
This is the query for "version": "[11.0,12.0)"
https://github.com/microsoft/sql-server-samples/blob/265be936565289d894e8c7817de3bbaf167d1e3c/samples/manage/sql-assessment-api/ruleset.json#L19309
Change to group by partition number and if it is a partitioned table, add the partition number information so we can use it in the message
SELECT CASE i.[type] WHEN 0 THEN CONCAT(SCHEMA_NAME(t.schema_id), '.', t.[name], ' (HEAP)') ELSE CONCAT(SCHEMA_NAME(t.schema_id), '.', t.[name], '.', i.[name]) END AS IndexFullName , stat.fragmentation, stat.page_count, i.[type] AS IndexType, CASE WHEN p.index_id IS NULL THEN '.' ELSE ' (Partition Number: ' + CAST(stat.partition_number AS varchar(5)) + ').' END AS partitionNumber FROM sys.indexes AS i WITH (NOLOCK) INNER JOIN sys.tables AS t WITH (NOLOCK) ON t.[object_id] = i.[object_id] AND t.is_ms_shipped = 0 INNER JOIN ( SELECT [object_id], index_id, SUM(ps.avg_fragmentation_in_percent) AS fragmentation, SUM(ps.page_count) AS page_count , ps.partition_number FROM sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats(DB_ID(), NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL) ps WHERE ps.index_level = 0 AND ps.alloc_unit_type_desc = 'IN_ROW_DATA' GROUP BY [object_id], index_id , ps.partition_number ) stat ON stat.index_id = i.index_id AND stat.[object_id] = i.[object_id] LEFT JOIN sys.partitions AS p WITH (NOLOCK) ON p.object_id = i.object_id AND p.index_id = i.index_id AND p.partition_number = 2 WHERE i.[type] IN (0, 1, 2)
This is the query for "version": "[12.0,)"

This is the query including partition numbers, it's worth noting that if this is run in SSMS duplicates may occur but this is based on having multiple rows with different states, these will then be filtered out by the API as it only looks for state <> 3

You can see in my test I get four results for that table, one for each partition that is fragmented above the threshold (0 in this example)
These are the same SQL queries just formatted for readability:

If I run the following to check my local pubs database for fragmentation (
config.json
lowers the threshold to 0) I get three rows per index as it is a partitioned table.If you add![image](https://github.com/microsoft/SQLServerPSModule/assets/981370/80589f50-42e4-4390-a11c-85d33d33ab5c)
sp.partition_number
into the query that runs this check you'll be able to see which partitions are fragmented and then this could be appended to the message returnedThis was originally posted on the
SQLServerPSModule
repo but suggested I post here https://github.com/microsoft/SQLServerPSModule/issues/68
