Look, you are inserting 2 millions rows that generate a big volume of information if you need rollback the transaction. I have 3 tips to you: 1- Create a higher size rollback segments. 2- Create a new big (really big) rollback segment and use the SET TRANSACTION USE ROLLBACK SEGMENT new_rollback; Preferentially, create this new segment as private (so it is not online every time). If any of the 2 above works.... 3- Pray :-) Kind Regards Ivan Boesing boesing@geocities.com Jouke Wilkens escreveu no artigo <01bca35f$da1d38a0$044c12c3@t273862>... > We use ORACLE vs.7.1. > > 3 jobs were running at the same time: > a. a job inserting 2 million rows in a table > b. a direct path SQLLOAD > c. a large query of 2 tables, resulting in a flat file after a sort. > > In all the 3 jobs was the error "ORA-01562: failed to extend rollback > segment (id=1)" > Job a. noticed on the next line "ORA-01650: unable to extend rollback > segment ROLLBACK2 by 3839 in tablespace ROLLB". > > 1.
