What is the significance of parameter  OPTIMIZER_INDEX_COST_ADJ ?
When I tried to change the value the explain plan has changed .

alter session set OPTIMIZER_INDEX_COST_ADJ = 10

table access for Z was by index rowid

alter session set OPTIMIZER_INDEX_COST_ADJ = 100

table access for Z was full

How can I make effective use of this parameter .
If i dont want to use this in alter session,can this value be
set elsewhere.
what is the difference between setting this parameter to some other value than 
default
compared to using hints in sql stmt.
I've tried some hints like rowid,index but it did not work for the join stmt
as it still used the FTS of Z before I tried to change the above parameter to 
10.

Hi All,
          I've  3 tables   table x,y,z
pk of x is (col_1,col_2),pk of y is (col_1,col_2,col_4,col_5),pk of z is 
(col_1,col_2)

where clause is :

where x.col_1 = y.col_1
and x.col_2 = y.col_2
and x.col_1 = z.col_1
and x.col_2 = z.col_2
and y.col_1 = z.col_1
and y.col_2 = z.col_2
and  x.col_3 in ('val1','val2','val3')
and.....
..

Explain plan shows that there is a FTS of table z .
what can be the reason for this and how to prevent this.


Thanks
Manoj
