Virtual Index

Filed under: Uncategorized — Helio Dias @ 4:33 pm

The importance of virtual index on database is allow us try what will happen if we decide create the index.
The syntax is quite simple, just add “nosegment” on the end of the create index command.
You must also remember to temporary alter the hidden parameter “_use_nosegment_indexes” to true .
Then check if the execution plan change as you planned and back the _use_nosegment_indexes to false
