I am planning to Shrink a DB thats been in use for several months. I was going through information in this link - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189080(v=sql.105).aspx and came to know if the Database is been using indexes, not to shrink (under Best practices).
I was also running the SQL query which I found in this web site - http://blog.sqlauthority.com/2008/10/03/sql-server-2008-find-if-index-is-being-used-in-database/ and found that the Index is been used in the particular DB.
I am new to Shrinking DB, Can you please let me know if thats fine to Shrink or any good practice to follow...??? Please let me know...
