Hi Mark,
One more quick question....hopefully...
Would you recommend putting the local index into the same partition as where the data is going?
For instance, I have the audit_event table partitioned with a partition name of event_M72015 that represents data for the month of July, and resides in segment infraaudit2015seg.
If I create a local index on the audit_event table, and provide it with the same partition name of event_M72015 and segment name infraaudit2015seg, I am then assuming that both the index and data will reside in the same partition and segment.
I'm worried that this may not be good for performance and I/O operations. I have read Sybase documentation and some technical white papers, but none of them talk specific about isolating the indexes from the data in separate partitions. I could of missed it somewhere though.....
So I'm considering placing the index into a separate partition name, but same segment. So for example, the local index would be in the idx1_event_M72015 partition (a new partition for the index), but the same segment of infraaudit2015seg.
Appreciate any thoughts on the matter! thanks!
Lisa
