Is there any restriction
that the segments shouldn't cross more than 5 extents in oracle
7.3.
Pl. help me, as I heard
from somebody that the segments shouldn't cross more than 5 extents and my
indexes are in more than 20 extents.
Thanks in
advance

Anand - This was the common wisdom several years ago. I used to rebuild
tables based on rules of thumb like this. Recently, several leading experts
have challenged this assumption, and now it is generally accepted that
trying to keep the number of extents below 5 wastes a lot of work for
nothing.
thanks a
lot...
