Autoextend datafile space allocation

edited May 7, 2013 1:03PM in Database Administration (MOSC) 15 commentsAnswered ✓
I saw it on some blog and it made me curious and I was hoping someone here could provide an explanation for me.

If, when creating a tablespace I specify AUTOEXTEND ON for a datafile but will omit NEXT clause, will Oracle extend the space 1 block at at a time untill it reaches necessary space or will it autoallocate the necessary size at once?

Howdy, Stranger!
