As I said elsewhere: I'll buy this, if someone will explain to me how I can make SYSTEM dictionary managed.

I feel a sense of deja vu over this subject, as -with the management types switched round, of course- I had exactly this sort of thread with a certain poster to these parts who insisted that he'd created a locally managed SYSTEM tablespace in 8.1.6.

So, the same question: how? since dictionary/local management is anattribute of the tablespace, not the datafile. And 'create database' doesn't have a 'create tablespace system' command in it.

Not saying it can't be done, and maybe there's a piece of doco I need to read. But...
