| I'm running Oracle 9 on Solaris system and one of the partition containing a datafile become full. I have 2 solutions to resolve my problem : first extend the metadevice (extend the volume in disksuite) so that the datafile may autoextend, or add a new datafile. Does anyone can tell me which solution is the better one ? What impact do these solutions have to the perfomance ? If I add a new datafile, how will the datafile(s) extend ? At present time the datafile is in autoextend on. If I add a second one with autoextend on, will the first still extend too ? Do I need to alter the first datafile to autoextend off ? Regards |

The objects stored in the tablespace and their usage patterns may also be a consideration. If you are using raw partitions your administrator may also want to define all partitions in specific sizes such as 512M, 1024M, 2048M, 4096M or similar. Only you can determine how you would like to manage your file system. HTH -- Mark D Powell -- |
