Table partitions and Index move/rebuild - initial extents issue

edited Aug 29, 2014 5:01AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered

ORACLE DB: 11.2.0.3

RAC / ASM

OS: Linux 6

I am in process of reorganizing a partition table and its indexes.

I am moving partitions from 4mg extent size  tablespace to 128k extent size tablespace to save space. After Oracle moved these partitions, I realized that Oracle kept the initial extent the same as the original tablespace, i.e. 4mg in my case. This defeat the purpose of saving space. So, now the partition shows as follows: the initial extents = 4mg and subsequent  next extents = 128k.

How could I move these tables/partitions/indexes, so Oracle will take the initial and next extent sizes the same as the new tablespace, all extents 128k?

Howdy, Stranger!
