Hi,
I want to move an index from tablespace TS1 to tablespace TS2. Tablespace TS2 has 700mb free. The index size is 100mb.
I tried to do this with alter index 'index_name' rebuild online storage(initial 5m next 5m minextents 2 pctincrease 0) tablespace ts02;
It is giving me the ora-01659: unable to allocate MINEXTENTS beyond 8 in tablespace TS2.
Does any one know why?
U have fragmentation of free extents.
Before create (or rebuild) index execute:
alter tablespace TS2 coalesce;
Hi,
Coalesceing the tablespace did not help.
Any Idea Why?
Check size of largest free extent.
Then try to decrease inital/next extent size little bit less then max free extent.
U can use this script for check:
koef of free extents fragmentation
max size of free extent.
