Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: index on table with 3 million rows ???
That's an awfully strange extent size (514k). Why don't you make it bigger, and make it divisible by your database block size? This would reduce wasted space. Also, do you really need all 8 columns indexed? If it's just for performance, you might be able to get away with using fewer columns, unless it needs to be a unique index.

Hi all,
I need to build an index on a table of 80 columns with 3 million rows. The index is on 8 columns.
I got ORA-01630: max # extents (n) reached in temp segment in tablespace ARBOR_INDEX, so I add more index files and enlarge extents, now I have 2 index files of 1G each, and tablespace storage is:
ALTER TABLESPACE ARBOR_INDEX
DEFAULT STORAGE (
INITIAL 514K
NEXT 514K
MAXEXTENTS 4080
);
And I still got ORA0-1630. Should I continue to increase index file size and extents or there is other way around? The datafile contains that table's tablespace is only 1G.
I didn't do exp, build index, imp since I believe for large amount of data, it's better to load the data first then build index.
Any idea? Thank you.
Leslie
