Here's an updated version of a query for reviewing PI's. I added the PI and table access counts for V2R5 and collapsed the PI columns into a single output column, comma separated. The

     /* ############  PI COLUMNS CROSSTAB WITH TABLE SKEW  ############
     Show tablename, perm space MBytes, skew, PI type and PI columns
     (crosstab), index and table access counts.
     Useful for a quick overview of your PI's.  Primary PI criteria is access
     paths, use PI vs table access count to see how you're doing.   Another
     goal is to to keep row variance < 5%.
     (reference V2R5.1 DB Design Manual, p 10-32, "Analyzing Column
     Distribution Demographics to Optimize PI Selection")

     Change History
     2004-12-22  Corrected product join between dbc.tables and dbc.indices.
     Was giving incorrect total space for multi column PI. Feedback by Ulrich Arndt.
     2005-03-17  Added table and index access counts for V2R5.  Also
     concatenated index column names into a single output column.
