Joe :
 
You probably know some of this already, but here is a summary of indexes on
partitioned tables
* Local indexes are just indexes that are equi-partitioned with the table
    * Local prefixed indexes have the partition columns as the leading
column(s) in the index
    * Local non-prefixed indexes do not
* Global indexes are indexes that are not equi-partitioned with the table
    * Global partitioned indexes are partitioned, but differently than the
talbe
    * Global non-partitioned indexes are not partitioned.
 
It looks like you have a global non-partitioned index there.

Ok i have a table range partitioned on date.
 
I have prefixed local indexes also.  so far so good.
 
I created an index, non partitioned, using simple 
 
create index index_name on table(field20);
 
Is that now assumed to be a global index?
 
I can't find any docs to say one way or the other.
 
thanks, joe
