    Not possible even in the near future (for many reasons).

    Because LMTs are so damn cool people just can't get enough of them

    This is not possible in 9i either!

    Actually i was also curious about it, i read it from -

    Sybex OCP: Oracle8i DBA
    Architecture & Administration and Backup & Recovery Study Guide by Doug Stuns & Biju Thomas

    Page 153 (Managing Tablespaces)

    "The SYSTEM tablespace can be locally managed; you must specify the EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL clause in the CREATE DATABASE command."

    Thank you for the clarification, i guess the author of the book was drunk when he wrote that section.

    More like I was drunk!

    It does appear to be a valid option in 9i during creation. You just can't migrate a dictionary managed system tablespace after creation.

    I'm creating one now to test that it isn't a mistake. Sorry for throwing you off the scent!

    Sorry :(

    It works! I now have a 9i instance with a Locally Managed System Tablespace.

    Please form an orderly queue to kick me square in the nuts!

    Here is an extract fromMetalink

    Code:
    
    
    CREATING A LOCALLY MANAGED SYSTEM TABLESPACE
    --------------------------------------------
     
    The Oracle 8i Concepts guide page. 3-8, states that you can specify that 
    the system tablespace be created as locally managed by including the extent 
    management local clause in your create database script......It states as 
    follows:
    
    "For the SYSTEM tablespace, you can specify EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL in the 
    CREATE DATABASE command"
    
    The truth however, is that neither Oracle version 8.1.5 OR 8.1.6 supports 
    the concept of a locally managed system tablespace.
    
    In Oracle 8.1.5, any attempt to add the EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL clause to 
    your create database command will result in a syntax error OR an 
    ORA-600 [3810] error.  In Oracle 8.1.6, any attempt to do so, results in 
    no error....But the clause is ignored. In 8.1.7 an ORA-2165 is returned when 
    using the clause in the create database command.
    
    Locally managed system tablespaces are simply not yet possible.
