Yes, the problem is that you're doing an implicit conversion. If you
use HEXTORAW() it should solve the problem.
Try:
select * from tab1 wnere raw_column = hextoraw('value');
Hope that helps,

Subject: Optimizer not using index on raw column
Hi,
We have an unique index on raw(16) column but whenever we issue a query
on this table optimizer is doing fullscan and not using the index but
when I force index it works fine:
Select * from tab1 where raw_column = 'value';
Is this expected behavior that when we refer RAW columns in query that
Optimizer not use the index?
Thanks
