Laura Stewart reassigned DERBY-3787:
------------------------------------

    Assignee: Laura Stewart

As near as I can tell (it's been awhile since I did any Derby documentation 
updates :-)
this is what needs to happen to update the documentation with this new built-in 
system procedure:

1. A new topic in the Reference Manual needs to be created
2. The name of the new procedure is:   SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_UPDATE_STATISTICS
3. The syntax is: SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_UPDATE_STATISTICS(SCHEMANAME, TABLENAME, 
INDEXNAME)
4. SCHEMANAME and TABLENAME are required parameters
5. INDEXNAME is not required, but If the user does not specify the indexname, 
then all the indexes on the tablename will have their statistics updated. If 
the user does specify an indexname, then statistics will be updated only for 
that index. 

What I need to know is:
1. What is a good 1-2 sentence description for this procedure. It would be good 
to tell the user why having current statistics is useful.  Are current status 
necessary for getting accurate info from other procedures, functiions, or 
utilities?
2. Is there a good example of both the procedure (with realisic parameter names 
like CUSTOMER for the tablename)
3. Do you want to show an example of the results of running the procedure?

Thanks, Laura
