Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> Using SET TRANSACTION USE ROLLBACK SEGMENT
We have large overnight load jobs that need to use a particularly large
rollback segment to avoid the dreaded 'ORA-01555: snapshot too old:
rollback segment number %s with name "%s" too small' problem.
I am planning to use SET TRANSACTION USE ROLLBACK SEGMENT to specify which rollback segment the job should use, but I have some questions before I do so :
Also more generally :
3) How does Oracle decide which rollback segment to use?
4) Can we have more than one process writing to the same rollback segment at the same time?
Any help will greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
