Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: ORA-01650
Your 6GB RBS Ts is probably devided by several rollback segments? What is
your rollback segment size? I am guessing you have at least 23 rollback
segments, since you have "RBS23"?
You could "commit" more often during a delete loop, say every 10K or 5K rows. Or you could copy the 1.6M rows you want to a new table, then truncate the old table, drop the old table, rename the new table to old table. This might be faster.

Subject: ORA-01650
I need someone to clarify what I am seeing.
Table contains approximately 6.6 million rows.
Each row is no more than 400 bytes.
Want to delete approximately 5 million rows.
Getting the following error message:
ORA-1650: unable to extend rollback segment RBS23 by 1536 in
tablespace RBS
The total size of the RBS tablespace is about 6GB!
I do not understand why the RBS is "too small" to
accommodate this DELETE.
What, if anything, can be done other than adding
another datafile to the tablespace.
