Stephen - To quote Monty Python "And now for something completely different . . .

    Consider switching to autoextend. It is scary I know. Won't work in every environment. But it can achieve your goals with less effort. Today if a tablespace is nearly full, what do you do? Go tell the users to delete some data? Nah, you probably just increase the size of the tablespace and go back to sleep. If there are 10 tablespaces on a device, you have 10 failure points. Autoextend can reduce that to a single failure point. It is easier and more reliable to monitor a single point of failure. Only autoextend data and index tablespaces, not undo or temp tablespaces.

That's not overly helpful, no ;)

I don't suppose there's any way to modify a tablespace to use uniform = extents after creation is there? It doesn't look like it, but if there = is, I figured I'd ask.

I really don't have the luxury of recreating this database.

It probably doesn't help to point out that you can avoid this effort entirely with uniform extents does it?
