Re: IMP & Initial Extents

You have a Percentage Increase: 50.
Which increases the extent size by 50% everytime a new segment is aquired, and it has a compound effect. Usually Percentage Increase is 0 (zero), unless you wanted the segment size to increase.   Kittu.

: Well, 61,440KB. Surely there's room for the 26MB file to fit into

: Anyway, there are the other parameters for this tablespace:
 

: Next Extent : 10K
: Minimum Extents : 1
: Maximum Extents : 121
: Percentage Increase : 50
 

: Can you tell by the above limited information as to what is wrong?

: Any suggestions or ideas are greatly appreciated.
