Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: stupid question about indexes and partitions
Joe,
This would be a non-partitioned index.
It is neither global nor local.
Global indexes are partitioned indexes
where the partitions range across the
entire table. Local indexes are partitioned
indexes where the partitions are the same
size (equi-partitioned) and where the index
partitions match the table partitions.
HTH,

Please
respond to
ORACLE-L
Ok i have a table range partitioned on date.
I have prefixed local indexes also. so far so good.
I created an index, non partitioned, using simple
create index index_name on table(field20);
Is that now assumed to be a global index?
I can't find any docs to say one way or the other.
thanks, joe
