RE: ORA-1653: unable to extend table - Resolved?

Well, I reduced the PCTUSED and PCTFREE on Friday and a small insert (app. 30,000 rows) seems to have worked as expected. No additional space was claimed and NUM_FREELIST_BLOCKS declined. I'll wait and see what happens during our next large insert.  

But for now it seems like changing these parameters may have resolved the problem.

How badly do you want the space back? I believe you will indeed need to touch each row.

You could update each row with something like (update .... set column-1=column-1)

Good luck!

But will this solve my problem in the near term? My understanding is that simply changing the PCT USED won't move the problematic blocks off the freelist until some sort of DML touches the block. Am I correct in this and if so is there any way to resolve it?
