Test Run Index Alternatives

Once SQL Optimizer generates index alternatives, you can test each alternative. When you test run alternatives, indexes are physically created on the database and dropped after SQL Optimizer executes the statement. Use of this function requires you to select a tablespace for the indexes.

Important: Since indexes are physically created on the database, this process may impact database performance.

To test run an index alternative

  1. Select the Optimize SQL tab in the main window.
  2. Select a SQL Rewrite session.
  3. Select an index alternative in the Alternatives pane.

  4. Click .

    Tip: Click the drop-down arrow beside and select Test Run - All to test run all index alternatives.

  5. Review the following for additional information:

    Index Information Description
    Index Shows SQL text of index selected.
    Tablespace

    Click and select a tablespace for index creation.

    Note: Review the information in the DDL Script pane.

Tip: Click to stop (or interrupt) the test run process. See Stop and Resume the Optimization Process for more information.

Analyze Index Impact (SQL Rewrite)

You can use Analyze Impact to simulate creation of the index alternatives Optimize SQL generates. The simulation process uses virtual indexes to determine the impact of creating the new indexes on your database environment.

Note: This topic focuses on information that may be unfamiliar to you. It does not include all step and field descriptions.

To analyze index impact

  1. Select the Optimize SQL tab in the main window.
  2. Select a SQL Rewrite session.
  3. Select an index alternative in the Alternatives pane.

  4. Click . A new Analyze Impact session opens.

  5. The Indexing Change Details page is populated with the new indexes that you sent from the Optimize SQL session. Use this page to modify the index, if necessary. See Analyze the Impact of Additional Indexes for more information.
  6. When you have finished modifying the indexes, click to start collecting the SQL to evaluate. See Collect SQL and Run an Impact Analysis.
