Why teradata does not give access to statistics views in dbc by default? - forum topic by pmehrotr

 
 
 
I come from Oracle backgrond. In Oracle if you have access to your database, you can look in user_tables and user_indexes to see last analyzed to find when statistics was run on a table or index.
In teradata even though I have access to look at tablesX, indiciesX, databasesX I do not have access to look at statistics  views such as TableStatsX, ColumnStatsX. I think by default tredata is not giving access dbc.tvfields  or so … I can collect statistics  on my table columns but I cannot look at the stasitics, why?
What privilges I need on dbc to look at statistics. Thanks  a lot.
