VARCHAR2(3)

Indicates if clustering is valid (YES) or not (NO).

For clustering with dimension tables, it is required that the joins of the fact table to the dimensions is via primary key or unique key on the dimension table. Therefore, dimension join keys must have a valid primary key or unique key constraint. If the primary key or unique key constraint is not valid, then clustering will not occur.

If there are no joins in the CLUSTERING clause, then the value of this column is YES.
