If the administrative summary for a specific vault indicates that defragmentation is recommended, the database can be defragmented using the server console. 
  
Note: Access to the vault database is blocked during this task. Data management clients cannot access the database until the task is completed. 
	 
- Select a vault from the Vaults folder. The administrative summary for the vault indicates if defragmentation is recommended. 
		
 
- Select Actions 
 Optimize Database. Before performing any defragmentation operation, all the indexes should be analyzed properly.
		 
- Click Analyze to perform a scan on the database and report the number of fragmentations.
		
 
- Click Optimize to defragment the database. Defragmentation actually rebuilds or reorganizes the indexes to match the logical ordering of data.
		
 
- You are prompted to confirm locking the vault to prevent users from accessing it during the operation. Click Yes. 
		
 
- A message is displayed indicating that the defragmentation completed successfully. Click OK.
