Information about multiple tables can be obtained in a single invocation of
\fBndb_desc\fR
by using their names, separated by spaces\&. All of the tables must be in the same database\&.
.PP
Beginning with NDB 7\&.2\&.9, it is possible to obtain additional information about a specific index using the
\fB\-\-table\fR
(short form:
\fB\-t\fR) option introduced in this version and supplying the name of the index as the first argument to
\fBndb_desc\fR, as shown here:

.PP
When an index is specified in this way, the
\fB\-\-extra\-partition\-info\fR
and
\fB\-\-extra\-node\-info\fR
options have no effect\&.
.PP
The
Version
column in the output contains the table\*(Aqs schema object version\&. For information about interpreting this value, see
\m[blue]\fBNDB Schema Object Versions\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2\&.
.PP
The
Extent_space
and
Free extent_space
columns are applicable only to
NDB
tables having columns on disk; for tables having only in\-memory columns, these columns always contain the value
0\&.
.PP
To illustrate their use, we modify the previous example\&. First, we must create the necessary Disk Data objects, as shown here:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
CREATE LOGFILE GROUP lg_1
ADD UNDOFILE \*(Aqundo_1\&.log\*(Aq
INITIAL_SIZE 16M
UNDO_BUFFER_SIZE 2M
ENGINE NDB;
ALTER LOGFILE GROUP lg_1
ADD UNDOFILE \*(Aqundo_2\&.log\*(Aq
INITIAL_SIZE 12M
ENGINE NDB;
CREATE TABLESPACE ts_1
ADD DATAFILE \*(Aqdata_1\&.dat\*(Aq
USE LOGFILE GROUP lg_1
INITIAL_SIZE 32M
ENGINE NDB;
ALTER TABLESPACE ts_1
ADD DATAFILE \*(Aqdata_2\&.dat\*(Aq
INITIAL_SIZE 48M
ENGINE NDB;
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.PP
(For more information on the statements just shown and the objects created by them, see
Section\ \&18.5.12.1, \(lqNDB Cluster Disk Data Objects\(rq, as well as
Section\ \&13.1.14, \(lqCREATE LOGFILE GROUP Syntax\(rq, and
Section\ \&13.1.18, \(lqCREATE TABLESPACE Syntax\(rq\&.)
.PP
Now we can create and populate a version of the
fish
table that stores 2 of its columns on disk (deleting the previous version of the table first, if it already exists):
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
CREATE TABLE fish (
id INT(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
name VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,
length_mm INT(11) NOT NULL,
weight_gm INT(11) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY pk (id),
UNIQUE KEY uk (name)
) TABLESPACE ts_1 STORAGE DISK
ENGINE=NDB;
INSERT INTO fish VALUES
(\*(Aq\*(Aq,\*(Aqguppy\*(Aq, 35, 2), (\*(Aq\*(Aq,\*(Aqtuna\*(Aq, 2500, 150000),
(\*(Aq\*(Aq,\*(Aqshark\*(Aq, 3000, 110000), (\*(Aq\*(Aq,\*(Aqmanta ray\*(Aq, 1500, 50000),
(\*(Aq\*(Aq,\*(Aqgrouper\*(Aq, 900, 125000), (\*(Aq\*(Aq,\*(Aqpuffer\*(Aq, 250, 2500);
.fi
.if n \{\

.PP
When run against this version of the table,
\fBndb_desc\fR
displays the following output:

This means that 1048576 bytes are allocated from the tablespace for this table on each partition, of which 1044440 bytes remain free for additional storage\&. In other words, 1048576 \- 1044440 = 4136 bytes per partition is currently being used to store the data from this table\*(Aqs disk\-based columns\&. The number of bytes shown as
Free extent_space
is available for storing on\-disk column data from the
fish
table only; for this reason, it is not visible when selecting from the
INFORMATION_SCHEMA\&.FILES
table\&.
