I thought that as well Tim, but wasn't sure whether Oracle loads the table
at startup even if this is specified in the storage clause. The following
test seems to show that it doesn't though:

SQL> create table DUMMY_TABLE (id number(3), dummy varchar2(5))
  2     storage(BUFFER_POOL KEEP);

Table created.

SQL> select DATA_OBJECT_ID, OBJECT_TYPE
  2    from USER_OBJECTS
  3  where OBJECT_NAME = 'DUMMY_TABLE';

DATA_OBJECT_ID OBJECT_TYPE
-------------- ------------------
         26408 TABLE

SQL> select count(*) buffers
  2    from V$BH
  3  where OBJD = 26408;

   BUFFERS
----------
         1

SQL> connect internal/password
Connected.
SQL> shutdown immediate;
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup
ORACLE instance started.

SQL> select count(*) buffers

Not sure on the trigger though, PL/SQL is not one of my strong points :)

Why not just specify BUFFER POOL KEEP in an alter table statement?

What is the problem to write something like
Select * from <table_name> for all tables that you need or if there are too
many such tables - create a new table with names of the tables and use
dynamic SQL .

        Hi Intelligent DBA's
                I was wondering if anyone knows how to create a trigger that
would fire off
        at database startup time and run a script to do full table scans on
several
        tables to get them into the buffer cache keep pool?  Right now I do
it
        manually and would like to automate the task.

        Sincerely,
