Full table scan means, while searching data for Ur query it will
look for whole data present in table.

Hi Sudhar,

You can use the below mentioned query to list out the objects
which are experiencing a full tablescan

select a.object#, a.operation, a.options,b.object_name,b.owner
from v$sql_plan a,dba_objects b
where operation='TABLE ACCESS' and options='FULL'
and a.object# = b.object_id
and b.owner NOT IN ('SYS','SYSTEM','XDB')
/

Thanks & Regards,
Vinod

It is usual practice to use index as the first point of reference while querying the table.At times the optimizer determines the optimal execution plan that skips index and does the scanning of table to locate the data.


It is advisable to keep full table scans at a minimum as it will have an impact on performance.
