Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Auto Extend
By the way ....... For your own sake ..... never use data files that big !! My personal opinion is multiple files of 500 Megs or less . Or, on a system that has a file limit, 1 GB files as a Max. Larger than that and you can have problems with backup software .... long running FTPs if you duplicate DBs ...etc.

What do you mean by 'the system is not set up'. How do you verify that?
We had problems with datafiles larger then 2 G and just turned autoextend
off on all datafiles.
I didn't know the system may or may not be set up to handle specific file
size limit. Is it documented?
Please explain. Thank you.

If the system is not setup to allow files bigger than 2 GB then the datafiles WILL NOT EXTEND and you will get an oracle error.

I have taken over an Oracle database that is setup with autoextend on the tablespaces. Can anyone tell me what happens when the datafiles extend beyond 2G on Unix?
