No - the term DERIVED INDEX means a select./omit - I suggest doing a google search on the term below and find all you can - I think the explanations are clear and worth looking.

This value controls whether the optimizer will be the new query engine or the old one, when there are select/omit logicals against the physical file you are querying.

Remember, you should almost never use a logical file in you SELECT statement. Although it forces you to the old query engine, it is OK to use a select/omit in your SELECT if you want to take advantage of its selectivity. It is probably less confusing, however, to put that selectivity into a WHERE clause, so that it is explicitly stated, and use the based-on PF. Hey, SQL just might use the S/O logical!!

- even when querying PFs, mere existence of an S/O LF may
cause a query to be routed to CQE. That is, unless there is
an IGNORE_DERIVED_INDEX setting in QUSRSYS/QAQQINI set to
*YES, or you're on V6R1 (that's the default setting for that
version of the OS), or your S/O LF is defined with the DYNSLT keyword

I'm not sure if I understand that : does IGNORE_DERIVED_INDEX stop the use of all indexes if I just reference the PF in the SQL instruction?
