I've resigned myself to the fact that I'm going to have to move the tables once shrunk. But as MOVE operations require exclusive locks during the operation, I was considering DBMS_REDEFINITION. (DB is EE if there's restrictions) I like the idea of online moving all segments to the new TS then taking a short outage to rename/cleanup/etc.

Anyone used that package before? Any gotchas or bugs?

Thanks all for the input so far!

Rich
