Hey Ric,
Thanks for the doc snippet, but I could have sworn that I read somewhere that INITRANS was also automatically handled. May be I am getting old :)

Cheers,

I'm pretty sure that INITRANS is still used, MAXTRANS is effectively ignored.

11.2 SQL Reference:
Existing objects for which a value of MAXTRANS has already been set retain that setting. However, if you attempt to change the value for MAXTRANS, Oracle ignores the new specification and substitutes the value 255 without returning an error.

Hi Shiva,
As an aside from your real question on the LOGGING issue, may I ask the specific reason for configuring INITRANS? I know what INITRANS is for, so that is not my question. But with Automatic Segment Space Management in Oracle 9i and up, Oracle should be (in theory) automatically managing the number of ITL slots in the block. In fact, I think the docs state that any configuration of INITRANS will be ignored. Are you not using ASSM for the tablespaces in question? Or have you had issues with ITL waits even with ASSM configured in the tablespaces? Just curious :)

Cheers,

Gaja

Hi,
Tablespace logging level takes precedence if no explicit option is provided. check the tablespace level settings for the new partitions and do an alter tablespace logging to change that behaviour

best regards
