Dear Friends
I have problem/misunderstanding with gather schema stat utility of oracle. Herewith i'm posting my try and output of it.
My main question is why the column 'LAST_ANALYZED' of dba_tables not updated on gathering fresh schema level statistics.
SQL>select OWNER,TABLE_NAME,NUM_ROWS,AVG_ROW_LEN,BLOCKS,SAMPLE_SIZE,LAST_ANALYZED from dba_tables where owner='STO' and rownum<=10 order by LAST_ANALYZED;
OWNER TABLE_NAME NUM_ROWS AVG_ROW_LEN BLOCKS SAMPLE_SIZE LAST_ANAL
------------------------------ ------------------------------ ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------
STO BILLSLIPB 7695 26 36 7695 29-MAR-10
STO BILL_CHECKING_SLIP 2634 71 28 2634 29-MAR-10

10 rows selected.
SQL>execute dbms_stats.gather_schema_stats(OWNNAME => 'STO', OPTIONS => 'GATHER AUTO');

Some more information by me on post, As per my understanding by gathering schema level statistics it should gather the stats for all objects which are underlying that schema. In my case few of tables last_analyzed date is updated, while most of them remain unchanged.

Presumably none of those objects qualify for analysis according to the criteria used by GATHER AUTO. The criteria are detailed in the description of DBMA_STATS on the PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference.

Thank John for quick reply,
Should i need to change any of parameters or the way i gather the schema level statistics. I think i should have to continue what i have done earlier. please suggest if i'm wrong. Provide some goods note/links/sites/blogs for reference about gathering stats and impact of it on database in 9i. which will be helpful in understanding better the package.
Regards
Jimit

Your database is not an important one. If it were important, it would not be running on release 9i. So if I were you, I would simply trust Oracle to get it right. The only documents you need right now are the PL/SQL Packages and Types reference and the Performance Tuning Guide.
