Deepender - Wracking my brain to recall 7.3. Is partitioning a feature? One thing you might consider is to keep each of the indexes in its own tablespace. This will give you more flexibility. I would also keep track of the size each week to help you forecast growth. Size restrictions will depend somewhat on your system, but if you are at 7-gig., you've probably passed the 32-bit restriction, usually at 2-gig. Just some ideas. Dennis Williams

Hi All,

I have a table in my database ( size 70GB ) with size of 7GB and it has 13

indexes on it. 5 Indexes are of the size 2 GB and rest are around

500-800Mb.

Total size of the table and indexes in total is 21GB.

The table size is increasing everyday and every 10-12 days I have to add a

datafile for Index and data tablespace.

I just want to know the precautions I need to take while maintaining this

table. Is oracle 7.3 having restriction on the maximum size of the table.

Kindly give your valuable suggestions.

Thanks in advance,
