Data dictionary question

edited May 3, 2013 4:41AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered ✓
Just wanted to ensure that INCREMENT_BY field in DBA_DATA_FILES table stored in bytes. Does anyone know for sure?

Also if I set INCREMENT_BY when creating tablespace:

CREATE TABLESPACE TBSPACE2
DATAFILE '/u01/oradata/DBName/tbspace2_01.dbf' SIZE 256K
AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 32K MAXSIZE 50M
ONLINE;

why is INCREMENT_BY field gets set to 4?

Is it because whetever I set it to get divided by default BLOCK_SIZE?

Howdy, Stranger!
