Hello, it's normal that only the indexes on one table is used during an inner join ?
for exemple : table a ID => pk_index DATE => index a_date => selectivity : 0.1 NAME => index a_name selectivity :0.1 table b : REFIDA => fk_index REFPRODUIT => index b_produit => selectivity : 0.2 NAME => index b_name => selectivity : 0.2 REQUEST : select name from a inner join b on (REFIDA = ID) WHERE a.DATE > '01.01.2000' and b.name = 'fb_server' and b.refproduit = 'azaza'; in the plan analyser only the index of a.date is used (a_date) not the b.name (b_name) and b.refproduit(b_produit) indexes. i think it takes the table that have the index with the best selectivity. because if for exemple b_produit index have a best selectivity that "a_date index" the two indexes of table B ares used and not this on table a. it' s normal ? is there a solution for take all index during an inner join ? thanks in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
