RE: Navigator - Index Advisor for Existing Indexes

Thanks Eric...I'll have a look and see what the problem is.

As for the index...yes, it is a legitimate index as I created it earlier.

Have you run the job in debug, so that SQL diagnostic messages are
logged? I believe the optimizer sends diag messages with the reason why
an index is selected or rejected. Also, look for any QAQQINI files that
may be in effect (QUSRSYS would be a global default).

Is the existing index really an index, or is it a DDS logical file?
What os release are you on?

Hth,
Eric

Hi All,

Can someone please explain to me why the Index Advisor in Navigator will
ask for an index even though it already exists? I ran the index advisor
against my data library and it asks me to create an index for a table.
When I try to create the index, the system reports an error telling me
the index already exists. However, the "Times Advised for Query Use"
for this index keeps going up.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
