Lars Hofhansl commented on PHOENIX-5096:
----------------------------------------

Note that including pk columns into the index does not add them (as 
[~jamestaylor] pointed out, they are always included), but rather changes the 
order.

A local index key looks like this:
{{(INDEX_ID, C1, C2, ..., pk1, pk2, ...)}}

When we include the pks (say pk1 as an example) in the index the index key 
looks like this:
{{(INDEX_ID, pk1, C1, C2, ...,pk2, ...)}}

Then the index is no longer usable without also specifying the pk columns in 
the query.

Perhaps this is expected. It's just not what I had expected, and it seems more 
limiting than necessary.

> Local index region pruning is not working as expected.

> The pruning of local indexes should do the following:
> * Use the local index
> * Reduce the number of regions based on filters on the table's primary key 
> (i.e. WHERE conditions including prefixes of the primary key)
> Instead it looks like in order for this to work the needed PK column need to 
> be included in the local index itself, changing the sort order of the local 
> index.
> I'll provide some examples in the comments.
