DBMS_REDEFINITION does need an exclusive table lock for a short duration wh= en it updates the data dictionary. =
BTW, in your earlier message you referred to ALTER TABLE MOVE. That's for = IOT's only and wouldn't help anyway.

Tanel,
Thanks for the reply.
It's 9i. I thought about table redefinition but I am not sure how it =
affect the performance. Second, I wonder if there a need to get a lock on =
the table just for a split of a second. We do not have any chance locking =
the table since there are always several transactions using it. What is your experience? Since it appeared only in 9i I am a bit worried =
about using it.
Thanks,
Alex
