V$OBJECT_USAGE view for indexes in all schemas

Jesse, Rich


Hey all,

Looking at implementing Index Monitoring in on HP-UX 11.11, =
primarily to make a case to drop unused indexes (one particular table =
has 17 indexes). So, I ALTER tons of indexes MONITORING USAGE, ignoring =
the LOB and Context indexes. All's well, but for some reason, Oracle =
decided to make the V$OBJECT_USAGE view so that a user can only see =
monitored indexes for their own schema (and I thought Oracle had a =
better handle on security in 9i).

So, I create my own view <BZZZZT!>. I can't because the =
SYS.OBJECT_USAGE table cannot be changed, apparently including GRANTs. =
I'd paste the error here, but when I try it again, I get an ORA-600. =
Oracle's solution is to create a new V$ view in SYS. I make it a habit =
to not mess with SYS unless I have to.
