RE: find what tables are being used in the database

I was also thinking of auditing but was looking for other possible
solutions.  I did not think of turning on index monitoring, that may
help also.

 

 

Thanks.

Auditing is probably  the best get, although there may be monthly,
annual or ad-hoc tables that might take a time to appear in the audit
tables.

Any table with an index on it is presumably in use (or was at one time)

 

Do an analysis of dba_source and try and pull out table names.

 

If the db has been running for 10 years then why do you need to document
it now?

What is the easiest way to find out what tables are being used in a
10.2.0.2 database?   I am using dba_tab_modifications but this only
tracks inserts, updates, or deletes.   I am trying to document a
database that has been running for about 10 years and has over 1500
tables.   It has no little integrity constrains and no documentation.

 

 

Thanks.
