To amplify Mr Sharman's reply...

  ALTER TABLE <table-name> MOVE
    [ PARTITION <part-name> | SUBPARTITION <subpart-name> ]     TABLESPACE <new-LMT>
    PARALLEL <as-much-as-you-can-stand>
    NOLOGGING; Moving ONLINE is available only for indexes, unfortunately. And doing the former (ALTER TABLE ... MOVE) will absolutely require the latter (ALTER INDEX ... REBUILD).   ALTER INDEX <index-name> REBUILD
    [ PARTITION <part-name> | SUBPARTITION <subpart-name> ]     TABLESPACE <new-LMT>
    PARALLEL <as-much-as-you-can-stand>
    [ ONLINE ]
    NOLOGGING COMPUTE STATISTICS; A great way to exercise the heck out of your disk drives, too...
