As mydata load continues, the saga continues. The simplistic algorithm does
not hold....

Can anyone explain these results?

According to a good email from Dan Fink (which I've since checked to 83
extents), the size of the extents is based soley on extent counts
        #extents                next extent size
        1-15                    64k
        16-79                   1m
        80-199          8m
        200-                    64m

I would guess that in most cases "estimating" the next extent size to be 8m
would be sufficient for space monitoring purposes

   For Raj's purposes, is it possible to estimate a range? I'm thinking he
really just needs an estimate to see if he is getting close.

There are three (3) types of LMTs (yes, three!)

UNIFORM Extent sizes
Every extent created in the tablespace will be the same size, no matter the
storage parameters specified.

AUTOALLOCATE (System managed)
The system will decide the next extent size at creation. This is based on a
large number of things. (I think the phase of the moon and the number of
sun-spots on 03-03-1942 are included in this calculation) The min extent
size is 64K

USER Allocated
This is only available for tablespaces that were converted from dictionary
managed tablespaces. As it would seem, the user determines the space
allocation -- the space allocation is the same as for dictionary managed
tablespaces. The benefit is that bitmaps rather than freelists are used to
identify free space.

With UNIFORM, you can tell exactly how many allocations will be required to
fill up the tablespace. (freespace / extent-size = #allocs)

With User Allocated use the same logic as you would for dictionary managed
tablespaces.

With Auto-Allocated extents, um. You don't know what the next extent size
will be.

I admit to being sleep-deprived but I don't see how there is a
difference between monitoring dictionary managed and locally managed
tablespaces when you are talking about the inability to allocate
another extent.

It seems relatively simple to me:  check the size of the next extent
that will be allocated (this can be calculated, regardless of auto
allocate, uniform or dictionary managed next and pctincrease). Check to
see if there is that much space available in the tablespace. If you
REALLY want to be paranoid, do this as if you expect EVERY table and
index in the tablespace to extend at the same time.

If remaining unallocated space is greater than the next extent
allocation  you calculate, you have enough space. If it is not, you
have to add a datafile or extend the existing one.

Or am I missing something?
