An index already exists for table '<0s>' with the columns '<1s>'.

Oracle only allows one index for each ordered set of columns.

As a rule, you should create an index only if the data in the selected columns will be queried frequently. Indexes take up disk space and can slow the adding, deleting, and updating of rows.

In most cases, the benefits of indexes will far outweigh the performance overhead, but if your application updates data very frequently, or if you have disk space constraints, you might also want to limit the number of indexes.
