"that can't happen") **************************************************** DID happen... now trying desperately to find out WHY it happened. The 'problem' effected our biggest client. I need to find out what happened so it doesn't happen again... File system now at 92%, but will need to add dasd in the near future for growth one interesting finding found in the digging 9i created files of 2000m are 2097168384 k at os level 8i created and upgraded to 9i files of 2000m are 2097156096 at os level... Anybody have any ideas how something that can't happen, did? Anyone ever seen this kind of weirdness before? April Wells Oracle DBA Keep yourself well oiled with life, laughter, new ideas and action.
