If you do a snapshot refresh then the snapshot log should be empty(correct?).
Then I would think you could reorg the master table as long as you prohibit
users from updating the master until the reorg and the recreating of the log is
complete.  Thus eliminating the need to do a complete refresh of the snapshot.

Been a while since I worked with snapshots, but if I remember correctly,
each record in a fast refresh snapshot keeps a mapping back to the rowid on
the master.  If you drop and recreate the master table, the mapping is hosed
and updates/deletes do not propagate to the snapshot.

I would like to reorg many tables which have snapshots associated with them.
I
understand that if the master table is dropped the snapshot log is also
dropped.  When a log is dropped, oracle states that you need to do a
complete
refresh of the affected snapshot.  My question is why?  If you do not allow
users to access the database with the master table, then you should not have
any transactions that would be lost.  Why can't you create a new log and
continue to do a fast refresh?   I am trying to avoid having to recreate all
the snapshots due to the size and number that we have.  Any thoughts?
Thanks
