Please post the exact error message. If you get ORA-01631, you need to increase the MAXEXTENTS value for the table. Here is an example:

alter table EMP storage (maxextents 1000);

Best regards.

Hi,

if the server is unable to extent the Maxtents to the table segments...then do the step which is already specified by one of our valuable member...

if you want to add a new file to the existing tablespace.

then do the following operation by logging to the database as SYSDBA

SQL> Alter Tablespace <TS NAME> add datafile 'Name &location' size n m;

please specify the complete path and location of the file

in single quotes...

Regards

Kumar
