you can change the storage parameters. I had heard from oracle support that you could edit the storage parameters (but nothing else!) in the sql.bsq file before creating the database... so if you can edit it there, it stands to reason (okay, sits, I'm tired this morning) that you can change the storage parameters once it has been created.

but....... I would, of course, confirm this with Support :)
