Thanks Niall. I just want to check one more thing here. As per the documentation,  "The Automatic Segment Advisor does not analyze every database object. Instead, it examines database statistics, samples segment data, and then selects the following objects to analyze:"

If the Statistics for some table is locked or not collected in the given maintenance Window, Does that mean that Daily or Weekend Segment Advisor will skip those objects and need manual intervention by running segment advisor

That's what the segment advisor is designed for! I'm going to quote directly from the relevant manual because I agree 100% with it. 

If you receive a space management alert, or if you decide that you want to reclaim space, you should start with the Segment Advisor.
