Still do not understand what you mean by these synonyms!

My bad on the explanation.

We have synonyms of the form

create public synonym X on tablespace.x

So when we have two tablespaces in the database we recreate the synonyms as such:

create public synonym X on new_tablespace.x

then drop the old tablespace. We have noticed that in doubt queries are not adversely affected. Thus zero downtime.
