Hi,

INCREMENT_BY is the next increment value for datafile autoextension. Multiply this value with you block size to get a byte value.

SQL> ALTER DATABASE
  2      DATAFILE '/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/oradata/orcl/example01.dbf'
  3      AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 8M
  4  /

Database altered.

SQL>
SQL> SELECT increment_by "Blocks", increment_by * (bytes/blocks) /1024/1024 "Meg"
  2    FROM DBA_DATA_FILES
  3   WHERE file_name = '/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/oradata/orcl/example01.dbf'
  4  /

    Blocks        Meg
---------- ----------
      1024          8

Best regards.

Frank
