I am trying to rebuild index online for a non-clustered index on a sql 2012 enterprise edition database. This is not working. I do not get error message. Index gets rebuilt but I see ONLINE=OFF in the script definition after rebuilding. I have tried couple of different ways
-alter index with ONLINE=ON
-From GUI properties for index, tried setting -Allow Online DML operations to True. Tried generating the script but doesn't generate one.
These both do the same. Index gets rebuilt but it doesn't set ONLINE status to ON in the description.
Has anybody else seen this?
The datatype of the columns which are used in rebuild index is not any of varchar(max),LOB,text,image etc.
