Thanks a lot
But I do not belive nulber of tablespace is 2 BILLION.

I spent time to find this

Part Number A76961-01	..\..\products.htm <../../products.htm> 
Library <../../products.htm> 	..\index.htm <../index.htm>

Physical Database Limits

Item Type of Limit Limit Value

Database Block Size
Minimum
2048 bytes; must be a multiple of operating system physical block size.         

Maximum
Operating system dependent; never more than 32 KB.

Database Blocks
Minimum in initial extent of a segment. 2 blocks         

Maximum per datafile
Platform dependent; typically 222-1 blocks.

Controlfiles
Number of control files
1 minimum; 2 or more (on separate devices) strongly recommended.         

Size of a control file
Dependent on operating system and database creation options; maximum of 20,000 x (database block size).

Database files
Maximum per tablespace
Operating system dependent; usually 1022.         

Maximum per database
65533.
May be less on some operating systems.
Limited also by size of database blocks and by the DB_FILES initialization parameter for a particular instance.

Database extents
Maximum
2 GB, regardless of the maximum file size allowed by the operating system.

Database file size
Maximum
Operating system dependent. Limited by maximum operating system file size; typically 222 or 4M blocks.

MAXEXTENTS
Default value
Derived from tablespace default storage or DB_BLOCK_SIZE initialization parameter.         

Maximum
Unlimited

Redo Log Files
Maximum number of logfiles
Limited by value of LOG_FILES initialization parameter or MAXLOGFILES parameter in the CREATE DATABASE statement. Control file can be resized to allow more entries; ultimately an operating system limit.         

Maximum number of logfiles per group
Unlimited

Redo Log File Size
Minimum size
50K bytes         

Maximum size
Operating system limit; typically 2GB.

Tablespaces
Maximum number per database
64K
Number of tablespaces cannot exceed the number of database files, as each tablespace must include at least one file.
