Hi Paulo

When creating an index, or CTAS, oracle use temp segments while building and rename them after the build finish. So if you do not have enough space you will get: unable to allocate TEMP segment.

I have a 9.2 database running on Solaris 8. I'm creating some test tables with indexes. The USER_INDX tablespace's datafile is set to autoextend (as are TEMP and USER_DATA). When the system attempts to create indexes, instead of auotextending the datafile (there is plenty of space on the device), it throws an ORA-01652: unable to extend temp segment by 128 in tablespace USER_INDX error. If I manually resize the datafile and rerun it, no problems.

Anyone else heard of this behavior? I can't find anything on Metalink that fits the problem definition.
