Hi all,
I have a dev env that the free space is very fragmented. The previous DBA has written a nice script to coalease all the tblsp every hour. Is there any "bad" effect of doing this?

In LTM's coalesce is not required or performed by SMON or otherwise, if you use DMT's then the benefit of coalesce is limited to only bringing together adjacent extents therefor not really that useful..
As Jay says as of 8i Locally Managed Tablespaces became available and there is NO good reason not to use them, even if you have migrated from previous versions there are utilities to convert DMT's to LTM's, or you can use the alter table move tablespace; command to move DMT's segments to LMT's tablespaces..
