I am trying to get some understanding of the following:- (Pardon my stupidity, if you can call this) 1. What are chained rows? 2. What is index/table partitioning? 3. In case of getting a table fragmentation report, what does the following have a physical meaning:- pct_free ? pct_used? it says Rows = 130750,? but my actual table has got more no. rows than that, how did that happen, even though I just ANALYSED the table, I did a Estinate statistics though, does it matter, not a compute statistics. block_alloc? block hwm? MB alloc? MB hwm? %hwm bytes used?
