Yes, we have had corrupt indexes -- detected either when the user reports ORA-600 [12700] {also logged in the alert.log} or when we run an ANALYZE TABLE ... VALIDATE STRUCTURE CASCADE We are now investigating recreating the BMJIs periodically. Another option, as recommended by Oracle was to upgrade to 9.2.0.5 However, you state that there are some bugs with ASSM and BMIs in 9.2.0.5 ? Can you provide some bug numbers ?
