Rollbacks cycle within themselves if possible.  A transaction cannot
span across several roolbacks, so yes you'll get an error.
You get the next available one. If you want (or need) to choose, you must issue a "set transaction use rollback segment <segment_name>;" at the beginning of your transaction.
