Static Data Dictionary Views

This chapter contains descriptions of data dictionary tables and views. To see the data dictionary views available to you, query the view DICTIONARY.

See Chapter 3, "Dynamic Performance (V$) Views" for descriptions of the V$ views.

In Trusted Oracle Server, each of the dictionary tables and views contains a column that indicates the label of each row in the table or view. Trusted Oracle also provides some additional dictionary tables and views, and some Oracle8 dictionary tables and views contain columns that support compatibility with Trusted Oracle applications.

See your Trusted Oracle documentation for more information about Trusted Oracle dictionary tables and views.

Data Dictionary Views

The following is an alphabetical reference of the data dictionary views accessible to all users of an Oracle Server. Most views can be accessed by any user with the CREATE_SESSION privilege.

The data dictionary views that begin with DBA_ are restricted. These views can be accessed only by users with the SELECT_ANY_TABLE privilege. This privilege is assigned to the DBA role when the system is initially installed.

LEAF_BLOCKS

 

NUMBER

 

 

Number of leaf blocks in the index

 

DISTINCT_KEYS

 

NUMBER

 

 

Number of distinct indexed values. For indexes that enforce UNIQUE and PRIMARY KEY constraints, this value is the same as the number of rows in the table (USER_TABLES.NUM_ROWS)

 

AVG_LEAF_BLOCKS
_PER_KEY

 

NUMBER

 

 

Average number of leaf blocks in which each distinct value in the index appears. This statistic is rounded to the nearest integer. For indexes that enforce UNIQUE and PRIMARY KEY constraints, this value is always 1.

 

AVG_DATA_BLOCKS
_PER_KEY

 

NUMBER

 

 

Average number of data blocks in the table that are pointed to by a distinct value in the index. This statistic is the average number of data blocks that contain rows that contain a given value for the indexed columns. This statistic is rounded to the nearest integer.

 

CLUSTERING_FACTOR

 

NUMBER

 

 

Statistic that represents the amount of order of the rows in the table based on the values of the index. If its value is near the number of blocks, then the table is very well ordered. In such a case, the index entries in a single leaf block tend to point to rows in the same data blocks. If its value is near the number of rows, then the table is very randomly ordered. In such a case, it is unlikely that index entries in the same leaf block point to rows in the same data blocks.
