When a SQL statement is protected by a SQL plan baseline, the next time you
run the same sql statement (the same force matching signature) this SQL
statement will end up by using the SQL plan baseline provided that this one
is still reproducible. And there are many reasons that make a SQL plan
baseline not anymore reproducible including dropping an index, renaming an
index, changing the index type, using a different nls_sort than the one
used at SQL plan baseline creation time, etc....
In your case, there might be two reasons for not using the Baselined plan:
1) the force matching signature of your current statement is not the same
as the one used to compile the SQL plan baseline execution plan
2) the SQL plan baseline is not anymore reproducible
When you issue your SQL statement the optimizer will parse its execution
plan as if there was no SQL plan baseline. It is only when it has finished
to parse the new plan that it will start to see if the new parsed plan
exists in the SQL plan baseline or not. If not found in the SPM plan
Baseline then all existing SPM plan baselines (for the same force matching
signature) will enter in competition and the best re-costed one will be
used. This is why the suggestion to have multiple SPM plans for a single
force matching signature might not be always a good solution.
I have a series of article about SPM you can find here below
