Fwd: RE: 9i / 9iRAC : Segment_Space_Management AUTO, with LOB

Ian,
Could you explain how ASSM could be detrimental in a single instance environment ?

Vivek,
Could you provide details on the issues [BugNos, description of the problem, your findings]
you had with ASSM in 9iRAC ?

Bottomline :  Either it was a bug or a restriction, it was not possible in 9.0.1 and supposed to be possible in 9.2.0 --- definitely
works in 9.2.0.2

Why do you say "In a single instance environment unless you are doing something out of the ordinary, use of the clause will probably be detrimental.  " ?

Was the prohibitition on placing LOB's into tablespaces with automatic segment space management only a bug.  I ask because  the description of  "auto" segment space management includes the following restrictions

One usually associates a bug  with something the manual says one can do, but one cannot.  I've not seen the 9.0.2 manual.  Are the restrictions lifted?

In a single instance environment unless you are doing something out of the ordinary, use of the clause will probably be detrimental.

The first time we tried importing our 8.1.5 [OPS] database
into 9.0.1 and  9.2.0.1 with
EXTENT_MANAGEMENT  Local   for ALL tablespaces
SEGMENT_SPACE_MANAGEMENT   Auto
we found that tables with LOB segments could not be created. This was a 9.0.1 bug which was expected to have been fixed in 9.2 [I believe it was Bug 1626182, referenced in Note 159078.1]

However, after going to 9.2.0.2, I WAS able to create
such tables in the database.
[the Patchset Notes include a reference to Bug 2326066. Unfortunately, I can't see either bug on MetaLink to verify if both are the same issue]

9iRAC strongly recommends SEGMENT_SPACE_MANAGEMENT Auto
instead of using Free_Lists and Free_List_Groups.  [Part 3, Appendix B of the 9iRAC Deployment and Performance manual].

Are there any real-life experiences / gotchas with LOB Segments in Locally Managed Tablespaces and Segment_Space_Management Auto ? There seem to be a number of bug-fixes for Segment_Space_Management=AUTO in the 9.2.0.2 PatchSet Release Notes.
