RE: Unusable partition index -- working funny

My guess it's firing the first time but is not taking effect during the current transaction may be because it fires as a recursive sql within the main sql.

Not a good idea to put this in a trigger.

Hello All,
  I have a strange problem...
  I have a table on which i am doing an update. Its a partition table and   the local index on the column which is being updated is in an unusable   state.
 I have a database trigger at statement level (before update of col_a for  ....) where i do an execute immediate ' alter session set  skip_unusable_indexes = true';

  i log into sqlplus as the owner of the table and do the following

SQL> connect nevadmin_at_nv_prod
Enter password: ******
Connected.
SQL> UPDATE nevadmin.DM_MORTGAGE_LOAN_HIST SET ORIGINATION_SOURCE_KEY = 11111 where
  2 mortgage_loan_key = 11111 and period_key = '30-JUN-03'; UPDATE nevadmin.DM_MORTGAGE_LOAN_HIST SET ORIGINATION_SOURCE_KEY = 1166444 where
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01502: index 'NEVADMIN.DM_MORTGAGE_LOAN_HIST_BK13' or partition of such
index is in unusable state

SQL> / 1 row updated.

---

My question is why does the trigger not fire for the first time...
When i do the /  i am able to update the table which means the trigger is
firing the 2nd time. 

Any help would be greatly appriciated..

thanks,

sathish.
