Re: How it works alter tablespace X default Storage...?

Trying to understand your post, it seems to be a bit confused 1 altering the default storage clause will apply to NEW objects only. No existing objects are changed.
2 If you want to change existing objects, initial cannot be changed, next can be changed. However, this needs to be done object by object (or by means of a script)
3 if you do want to change initial, you need to export everything in that tablespace, drop the current objects, create them with the correct sizing and import the file you exported.
