Kevin, Try to check what kind of segment this block belongs to (DBA_EXTENTS + DBA_SEGMENTS - extents are identified by the block# of their first block plus the number of contiguous blocks, so you have tolook for the extent for which 191659 is >= first block and < first block + extent size. It will tell you whether it's a table (and which one), index, temp or rollback segment, and you will be better armed to take a decision. There may be less time-costly than cloning the production database again. -- Regards, Stephane Faroult Oriole Software -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Stephane Faroult INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
