28.4.23 INFORMATION_SCHEMA INNODB_TABLES 表

The INNODB_TABLES table provides metadata about InnoDB tables.

For related usage information and examples, see Section 17.15.3, “InnoDB INFORMATION_SCHEMA Schema Object Tables”.

The INNODB_TABLES table has these columns:

TABLE_ID

An identifier for the InnoDB table. This value is unique across all databases in the instance.
NAME

The name of the table, preceded by the schema (database) name where appropriate (for example, test/t1). Names of databases and user tables are in the same case as they were originally defined, possibly influenced by the lower_case_table_names setting.
FLAG

A numeric value that represents bit-level information about table format and storage characteristics.
N_COLS

The number of columns in the table. The number reported includes three hidden columns that are created by InnoDB (DB_ROW_ID, DB_TRX_ID, and DB_ROLL_PTR). The number reported also includes virtual generated columns, if present.
SPACE

An identifier for the tablespace where the table resides. 0 means the InnoDB system tablespace. Any other number represents either a file-per-table tablespace or a general tablespace. This identifier stays the same after a TRUNCATE TABLE statement. For file-per-table tablespaces, this identifier is unique for tables across all databases in the instance.
ROW_FORMAT

The table's row format (Compact, Redundant, Dynamic, or Compressed).
ZIP_PAGE_SIZE

The zip page size. Applies only to tables with a row format of Compressed.
SPACE_TYPE

The type of tablespace to which the table belongs. Possible values include System for the system tablespace, General for general tablespaces, and Single for file-per-table tablespaces. Tables assigned to the system tablespace using CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE TABLESPACE=innodb_system have a SPACE_TYPE of General. For more information, see CREATE TABLESPACE.
INSTANT_COLS

The number of columns that existed before the first instant column was added using ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN with ALGORITHM=INSTANT. This column is no longer used.
TOTAL_ROW_VERSIONS

The number of row versions for the table. The initial value is 0. The value is incremented by ALTER TABLE ... ALGORITHM=INSTANT operations that add or remove columns. When a table with instantly added or dropped columns is rebuilt due to a table-rebuilding ALTER TABLE or OPTIMIZE TABLE operation, the value is reset to 0. For more information, see Column Operations.
