Once again I turn to the gurus.

I have a vendor who is nervous about the Oracle managed statistics
(target object auto). They don't like seeing objects with statistics
older than a month.

My choices are:
1) Fight a battle "re: are the statistics REALLY stale".
This will be long and futile, since management likes vendors.
2) Change the frequency/agressiveness of the auto analyze.
3) Run the full analyze every day/week/2 weeks.
Waste of resources / 8i way of doing things.

Since I haven't played with the statistics area of GRID or 10g, I
would like to take that approach.

Is there a way to adjust Oracle's threshold?

Thanks,

Oracle 10.2.0.3 on Red Hat 3.
Three node RAC.

GRID shows the script as:
begin
dbms_stats.gather_database_stats(
options=> 'GATHER AUTO');
end;

Last night it analyzed 222 objects in 8.46 minutes. This left 899
tables and 1553 indexes analyzed before September 22 (vendor has a
tizzy).

Fire the vendor.

There are times when stale statistics are the better. They are using
mythology to make decisions rather than real-world experience.

I would suggest getting a copy of Jonathan Lewis' book on the CBO
and reading it with care.

Not a chance!!!!
If I read a book, I may want to do things in a 9i or 10g way, rather
than the way they want (Oracle 8).

As far as stale being better, there is a table with one row which
never changes. Guess if they want it analyzed. Guess... I dare yah.

<grin>

thanks for the sympathy guys.
