Dba_index_name and dba_ind_columns showing different results

Question

Hi All,
I am confused why it is showing different results:
[email protected]#>select index_name from dba_indexes where table_name='CRBTPROV_FINAL';
INDEX_NAME
CRBTPROV_INDX1
[email protected]#>select index_name from dba_IND_COLUMNS where table_name='CRBTPROV_FINAL';
INDEX_NAME
CRBTPROV_INDX1
MSISDN_IDX
When trying to drop index MSISDN_IDX it gives error:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified
But when trying to check where all the index is used using v$access:
select * from v$access where object='MSISDN_IDX';
no rows selected
Regards,
Kirti

Answer 1

If I run the following query on a 9.2.0.6 database, no index is listed:
select type, count(*) from v$access group by type;CURSOR
FUNCTION
NON-EXISTENT
PACKAGE
SEQUENCE
SYNONYM
TABLE
TRIGGER
VIEW
It seems that index is not taken into account by v$access ?
