9.2.0.5 EE AIX5L I've searched on AskTom, looked at the Admin & Concepts manuals, and searched here but I can't find anywhere that tells me what happens to my table if an 'ALTER TABLE X MOVE' fails.

I thought I remembered reading somewhere that the table move creates temp segments in the new tablespace that are converted to permanent segments after completion. So I can see that the new segment would cease to exist if it failed during execution. But what happens to the original? Nothing I'm assuming, but I just wanted to revist this before I actually perform. Received on Thu Nov 09 2006 - 09:08:31 CST
