hi i am trying to figure out how unusable indexes could help me in certain cases like bulk loading etc. i am trying to understand how it works.
i created a table with a index and used a query which used this index. later i made this index unusable and unless and until i make this index non-existent the query always returns a 1502 error trying to access the table thru the unusable index when i can see that full table scan is still an option. the init.ora parameter skip_unusable..is set up too. version is 9.2.0.3 on aix 5l. can someone clarify whether this is how it is supposed to work or am i missing something . thanks sai -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: Sai Selvaganesan INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
