`OBJECT_TYPE`	`VARCHAR2(61)`	-	Name of object type, if any
`SORT_ORDER`	`VARCHAR2(22)`	-	User-specified sort order
`RECIPIENTS`	`VARCHAR2(8)`	-	`SINGLE` or `MULTIPLE`
`MESSAGE_GROUPING`	`VARCHAR2(13)`	-	`NONE` or `TRANSACTIONAL`
`COMPATIBLE`	`VARCHAR2(5)`	-	Indicates the lowest version with which the queue table is compatible
`PRIMARY_INSTANCE`	`NUMBER`	-	Indicates which instance is the primary owner of the queue table, or no primary owner if 0
`SECONDARY_INSTANCE`	`NUMBER`	-	Indicates which instance is the secondary owner of the queue table. This instance becomes the owner of the queue table if the primary owner is not up. A value of 0 indicates that there is no secondary owner.

Queue Subscribers View

Name of View

AQ$Queue_Table_Name_S

Purpose

This is a view of subscribers for all the queues in any given queue table. The subscriber view shows subscribers created by users with DBMS_AQADM.ADD_SUBSCRIBER and subscribers created for the apply process to apply user-created events. It also displays the transformation for the subscriber, if it was created with one. It is generated when the queue table is created.

This view is only created for 8.1-compatible queue tables.

Usage Notes

For queues created in 8.1-compatible queue tables, this view provides functionality that is equivalent to the DBMS_AQADM.QUEUE_SUBSCRIBERS() procedure. For these queues, Oracle recommends that the view be used instead of this procedure to view queue subscribers.

Queue Subscribers and Their Rules View

Name of View

Purpose

Displays only the subscribers based on rules for all queues in a given queue table, including the text of the rule defined by each subscriber. It also displays the transformation for the subscriber, if one was specified. It is generated when the queue table is created.
