Question

You are monitoring and evaluating a create index statement on your Database Machine and have run the following query after executing statement, providing the output. Shown:

Select two reasons why the statement would have produced so many "cell single block physical read" waits compared to "cell smart table scan" waits.

  • BThere is an uncommitted transaction that has modified one block of the table on which the index is being
  • CThere is a transaction that has modified one block of the table on which the index is being built in each cell,
  • DThere are huge numbers of chained rows in the table on which the index is being built.
  • EThere is a ROWID column in the table on which the index is being built.

Explanation

A: It could be that row migration. D: It could be that row migration or chained rows could cause it. * Some facts about scans: Scans exists in "OLTP" systems Exadata smart scan requires a direct path read. A direct path read is chosen at runtime based on internal heuristics The STORAGE clause in an explain plan doesnt necessarily mean you will perform a smart scan. * The buffer caching in certain "OLTP" environments can occasionally induce conventional reads when smart scan is faster. * Typically see cell multiblock physical read instead of cell smart table scan waits * No one-size-fits-all solution can be given here but it is very fixable.
