I haven't read the note yet, but what Rich mentions here may explain why
I haven't encountered any problems.
I started out testing with copies of prod tables which had no stats at
all. So their first stats were gathered with gather_shema_stats.
>>> Rich.Jesse_at_qtiworld.com 05/29/03 03:14PM >>>
I looked at bug 1890016 on MetalClink and I'm confused.
Did you run ANALYZE COMPUTE before running DBMS_STATS like the bug's
test
case? I thought this was a no-no??? If so, I'm wondering if it would
it
help to ANALYZE DELETE then rerun DBMS_STATS w/EMPTY,
insert/update/delete
test rows, force an update of DBA_TAB_MONITORING (via SHUTDOWN NORMAL
or the
new 9i method that escapes me), then try DBMS_STATS w/STALE option.
Just a thought...
