Adrian,
As Vladimir showed in the sql script using the ALTER TABLE ... ALLOCATE EXTENT...
works great. I have tablespaces across multiple datafiles and of course they are not
used up completely before a table's next will not fit in the free space of the
datafile. You have to change the next extent size to fit the free space and then
ALLOCATE the extend to the table before you do the dataload. You end up with datafiles
used to the max and no wasted free space at the end of the datafile. The method
described in the "round_robin.sql" is a method of loading different data loads into
different datafiles.
Works great.
