James Thanks – looks like I was misled by DBVisualizer. The underlying hbase index tables automatically have the parent table’s schema name prepended, which is perfect. For some reason in the DBVisualizer object browser the indexes don’t show up in the correct schema, they’re showing up in a schema named (null).

I note that the grammar online makes it clear this isn’t part of the syntax, but it would be nice if we could do it. To illustrate what I’d like:- -- Create the table CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS MMCALLISTER.TEST ( c1 INTEGER NOT NULL , c2 VARCHAR NULL , c3 VARCHAR NULL , CONSTRAINT TEST_PK PRIMARY KEY (c1) ); -- This does not work CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS MMCALLISTER.TEST_IX01 ON MMCALLISTER.TEST ( c2 ) INCLUDE ( c3 ); -- This works CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS TEST_IX01 ON MMCALLISTER.TEST ( c2 ) INCLUDE ( c3 ); Michael McAllister Staff Data Warehouse Engineer | Decision Systems [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> | C: 512.423.7447<tel:512.423.7447> | skype: michael.mcallister.ha<mailto:[email protected]> | webex: https://h.a/mikewebex [cid:[email protected]] This electronic communication (including any attachment) is confidential.
