list... this is something i cannot explain.. goal: to CTAS in a newly created tablespace
1) i created two raw devices test01 and test02 2) create tablespace test datafile '/dev/rtest01' size 1040m; 3) alter tablespace test add datafile '/dev/rtest02' size 1040m; 4) create table ratedlocal_test tablespace test storage(initial 1016m next 896 minextents 2 pctincrease 0 freelists 2) unrecoverable parallel 3 as (select * from ratedlocalcalls) / when the table creation was going on.. i happen to look at the v$filestat numbers, i found that the raw device TEST02 was being written to first !!! (it's the SECOND datafile in the tablespace creation) my understanding is that when a table is created, the extents are (initially) taken from the datafile which is the first file when the tbs was created !!! what could be the logic behind this ?? -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Rahul INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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).
