MessageHi!

If your server process couldn't be even killed, then probably it was waiting on kernel IO or smth like that. This is a case when a process can't be killed just like that, even with -9.

I assume you already tried to isolate the problem, by creating smaller file or removing auto segment space management clause?

Tanel.

  I have RDBMS 9.2.0.4 on RH 7.3 and I executed the following command:

  create tablespace wizard
  datafile '/oradata/WIZ/wizard01.dbf' size 3072M reuse   autoextend on next 1024M maxsize 16385m   extent management local autoallocate
  segment space management auto;

  The whole system just hung, doing I/O like crazy. I was unable to killl one of the server processes   which survived even shutdown abort, so I had to bounce thw whole box. No errors, no traces, no   anything. Does anybody else have experience with this? Is there a known bug (not currently known   to me) with a patch that I can install? I'd really like to use "SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO"   and forget about pctfree/pctused stuff.
