About automatic maintenance, timing can be done by allowing a certain percentage of the CPU to be used online, with the lowest precedence. It'd be slow, but it would get done. As for what. There are certain tasks that everyone will agree on. The paper mentions one. Start with those, so it rebuild when the scenario is that bad. If the feedback from the field is good, and people want a more proactive approach, get more comments from the DBAs in the field. Thanx, Denny, interesting paper.
