online index rebuilds 2006-01-30 - By Tanel Poder
Hi,
Thinking about why full table scan is required for online index rebuild... Maybe the potential index block splits are the reason why index FFS can't be used for online index rebuild? Consistent reads should overcome this issue though, but maybe there is something we don't know...
Btw, with offline index rebuild the decision whether to go with FTS or index FFS is also cost based (at least 10.2). If I have only single-column table indexed then the offline rebuild may do an FTS instead of fasf full index scan. (also, even in the case of fast full index scan, rows have to be sorted anyway, because index fast full scan doesn't guarantee an ordered result).

Any other differences besides: 1) does not lock the table; 2) does a full table scan instead of full index scan; ? -- --Original Message-- -- From: oracle-l-bounce@(protected) [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@(protected) ]On Behalf Of Joseph Amalraj Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2006 9:48 AM To: Bobak, Mark; joseph@(protected); ORACLE-L Subject: RE: ORA-01652 (See ORA-01652.ora-code.com): unable to extend temp segment
Thanks,
Had read the article, but I am interested as to why Oracle is doing a full table scan instead of full index scan for online index rebuilds.

Thanks Tanel,
Is there any reason why Oracle does full table scans for online rebuilds and not for offline.

However, in both cases, old index segment is kept until new one is ready to use and switch to it is done. Also the journal IOTs used for online rebuilds are stored in the target tablespace, so if you've got lots of transaction s going on while you are rebuilding the index onl ine, you need additional space in target tablespace.
