Hi:

I'm getting problems with the creation of an table...

create table table1 as (select * from table2)

My table has 2,000,000 records an i have the follow message error:

ORA-01630: max # extents (505) reached in temp segment in tablespace DM05_DAT...

i´m not a DBA...

How can i specify a storage (MAXEXTENTS UNLIMITED)... or someone knows another option??


Greetings
Alex

Oy vey, what version of the database are you using that your tablespaces were created with MAXEXTENTS of 505?

The problem is not with the table you are creating but with the temporary segment that is being created as it is building your table.

Try to add an ancient storage clause to your create table script as such:

create table table1 storage (maxextents unlimited)
as (select * from table2);


You might want to give an INITIAL and/or NEXT parameter also. However, it may just be that the tablespace is inadequately designed and that storage clauses won't help because the TEMP segment is just using the default for the tablespace. In that case, you'll have to ask the DBA to change the default INITIAL, NEXT and/or MAXEXTENTS for the tablespace.
