  `varchar(64)`

   Name of the table

* `index_name`

   Name of the index; if the index is not named, the name of the first column in the index is used

* `index_type`

   Type of index; normally this is 3 (unique hash index) or 6 (ordered index); the values are the same as those in the `type_id` column of the [`dict_obj_types`](mysql-cluster-ndbinfo-dict-obj-types.html) table

* `status`
