With the size of your table you might want to consider changing it into a
fake partitioned table (assuming there is a key that it would make sense to
partition on) for better performance. While 7.3 doesn't support real
partitioning, you can create seperate tables (each in their own tablespace)
and create a view that joins them. This also has the advantage of being
able to easily archive off data that is no longer needed.
It might not be worth it for you but it's something to consider.
Alternatively you could upgrade to a version that supports partitioning.

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,
