  • THREAD_ID

    The thread identifier of the session in which the variable is defined.

  • VARIABLE_NAME

    The variable name, without the leading @ character.

  • VARIABLE_VALUE

    The variable value.

The user_variables_by_thread table has these indexes:

  • Primary key on (THREAD_ID, VARIABLE_NAME)

TRUNCATE TABLE is not permitted for the user_variables_by_thread table.
