Hi Reindl Harald, Does this means that if we have a single tablespace with file per table and doing the optimization will reduce the size of the datafile size ? If yes, then why this not possible on the datafile (one single file) too ? * * *thanks & regards,* *__________________* Kishore Kumar Vaishnav * * On Tue, May 22, 2012 at 3:07 PM, Reindl Harald <h.rei...@thelounge.net>wrote:
