    If you don't have the metalink support, please let us know and we would try to explaing what is causing this problem.

    You have too small rollback segments, probably.

    When SMON is generating undo after internal operation, this undo needs to be wrapped into the next extent. But your next extent is just being shrunk.

    Make INITIAL, NEXT (and OPTIMAL) a bit larger.

    Hello,

    This is the complete explanation available in METALINK :

    **********************
    Error: ORA 1594
    Text: attempt to wrap into rollback segment (%s) extent (%s) which is being fr
    eed
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Cause: Undo generated to free a rollback segment extent is attempting
    to write into the same extent due to small extents and/or too
    many extents to free
    Action: The rollback segment shrinking will be rollbacked by the system;
    increase the optimal size of the rollback segment.


    *** Important: The notes below are for experienced users - See [NOTE:22080.1]


    Explanation:
    1594 is reported when a rollback segment is being shrunk but there is
    not enough space in the current undo extent to complete the job.
    Shrinking uses whatever is available in the current extent in the
    rollback segment. If no more space is left and the extent you
    would move into is one that is being freed you will get 1594.
    This error is harmless. When you retry, chances are you will not get
    the same error again.

    Usually this is caused by running a transaction after a huge
    transaction commits. Because of the setting of OPTIMAL, a very large
    number of extents need to be deallocated all at once.

    One way to avoid this problem is to have larger extent size.
    Another way is to have a larger OPTIMAL setting, so that only a smaller
    number of extents will be removed at one time.

    SET TRANSACTION USE ROLLBACK SEGMENT is also a good idea for large
    jobs so you know which rollback segment they will use.


    Note: There are changes to the way SMON shrinks rollback segments
    in 7.2. It should try to shrink a small number of extents at
    a time.


    Hope this helps

    Regards

    Question

    I executed this query

    select a.name, b.extents, b.rssize, b.optsize, b.shrinks, b.aveshrink, b.aveactive, b.wraps, b.extends, b.status
    from v$rollname a, v$rollstat b
    where a.usn = b.usn;

    This is what I got.
    I have 300 rbs, each with about 2 extents, 1056768 rssize, 2097152 optsize, shrinks are 0 and wraps are about 5 aveactive is 216024.
    Should I still increase optimal.
    Thanks

    :)

    I think you should reorganize your undo/rollback segments. How many concurrent users do you have? More than 1000? Then 300 is probably the right amount. But 2 extents in a segment is really the minimum. 20 is OK.
