Well, it only goes away if you choose your extent size correctly :)

I put the objects in their own tablespace and had the same problem with STATS$PARAMETER_PK since I set the default to the same as my TS_SMALL.

Jesse - Since you will probably be collecting and deleting statistics, which may create fragmentation, I feel this is a good time to consider:

  1. Separate tablespace.
  2. Locally managed tablespace with uniform extents. Then your issue with extent size goes away. This has worked quite well for me.

Hi all,

I've been having problems with a STATSPACK index running out of extents in 8.1.7. Turns out that the docs are wrong or at least a little misleading. In MetaLink note 149113.1 and also in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/spdoc.txt, it states:

"The default initial and next extent size is 1MB for all tables and indexes which contain changeable data."

(spdoc.txt may be slightly different) This is not true for some of the indexes created by PK constraints, like STATS$PARAMETER_PK. The index will be created with the tablespace's default extent sizes. In my case, it was way too small.

I looked in the $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/spctab.sql on my 9i install and the missing storage parameters have been inserted there. So, I filed a TAR on it and the analyst said I was the first to report the problem. He also stated that since 8.1.7.4 is now frozen that there wouldn't be a backport. I've asked that the issue be a new Metalink note.

Just in case anyone else has had an issue with this. I can't be the first one, can I?

Enjoy!
