Hello,

 

 I have a large partitioned table that resides on 2 different database.
This table is partitioned by a varchar2 date (YYYYMMDD) daily.  

Both tables have a "maxvalue" partition. I am copying the stats for each
database so they are the same. However on one database I have 71 partitions

While the other has 113. 

 

The following query is executed against each database. 

 

Select max(batch_date)  from table where id = "value" and level_no = 'value;

 

In one database the explain plan is below. The "pstart" is 71 and "pstop" is
1.

 

Operation          Object Name     Rows    Bytes    Cost     Object Node
In/Out   PStart   PStop

 

SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer Mode=ALL_ROWS                   1
7                                                           

  SORT AGGREGATE                1          31


    PARTITION RANGE ALL                    84 K     2 M       72
71         1

      FIRST ROW                        84 K     2 M       72


        INDEX RANGE SCAN (MIN/MAX)  CLD.HL_CARD_TYPE_SUM_NETID_NIDX
84 K     2 M       72                                                   71
1

 

 

When I run against the second database I get: The pstart in this case 1 and
it scans all partitions.

 

Operation          Object Name     Rows    Bytes    Cost     Object Node
In/Out   PStart   PStop

 

SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer Mode=ALL_ROWS                   1
10                                                          

  SORT AGGREGATE                1          31


    PARTITION RANGE ALL                    134 K    3 M       10
1          113

      INDEX FAST FULL SCAN   CLD.HL_CARD_TYPE_BATCH_IDX       134 K    3 M
10                                             1            113
