Oracle note: 120061.1
QUESTION:
Why is the table extending with the next extent that is specified even
though
it is a locally managed tablespace.
ANSWER:
Migrated tablespaces are not subject to the UNIFORM/SYSTEM policy of newly
created locally managed tablespaces. This would be too difficult to
implement,
since the tablespace is likely to contain the existing objects which
already
violate new policy. For this reason, migrated tablespace only support the
same
allocation policy as the dictionary tablespaces. If you select from
DBA_TABLESPACES, you should see "USER" value in the ALLOCATION_TYPE column
for
migrated tablespaces, and UNIFORM or SYSTEM value for tablespaces which
were
created as locally managed.
Therefore, the user does not get the policy benefits from migration, but
can
still get performance benefits - no ST enqueue contention and more
efficient
extent operations.

Waleed

Not sure that I fully understand that.
Does that mean that tablespace_migrate_to_local does not actually give me any of the advantages of locally managed tablespaces in terms of extent management?
