Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Has anybody encountered problems with HISTGRM$ ?
Stephane,
I was reading a forum on Oracle Metalink, which may be related to your issue. The Forum's subject is "What is SYS.OBJ#_INTCOL#"? There is a reference to " analyze tables for all indexed columns" witt size 1 instead of default 75. Take a look may be it will be helpful for you
I was wondering what did you mean by "looped on hist_head#"? Did you just remove rows from it? Could you elaborate, please?
Thanks
Gene
