    and also you can move your blob column to another tablespace by this command,so your lob ll be separated to another tablespace but table stays in the original tablespace.

    ALTER TABLE test_lobtable
    MOVE LOB(image) STORE AS (
    TABLESPACE lob_data2
    )
    /

    Hi Malay & Balki
    Thanks for the suggestion. I have already done with this ALTER TABLE MOVE procedure and rebuilding the indexes, Thank you guys.

    Hi Tamil

    As I have already done this ALTER TABLE MOVE procedure for few tables. Do I still need to reorg these tables?? OR is it better to reorg the entire database. The size of the database is close to 970GB

    We have few more tables with these BLOB columns which are consuming the diskspace alarmingly. These tables are more transaction oriented, on an average there may be 30,000 thousand records will be inserted daily in each table and almost the same amount of old records will be purged. And this has been a routine work for the last 2 years, so I thought it is better to reorganize these tables rather going for the entire database. Could you please suggest me on this.

    Thanks in advance
