We rebuild an index either to make corrupted or unused index usable again or to change the tablespaces of the index for storage performance purposes.

We use the REBUILD clause for rebuilding an index:

SQL> ALTER INDEX <indexname> REBUILD;

OR

SQL> ALTER INDEX <indexname> REBUILD TABLESPACE <new-tablespace-name>;
