I am running 8.1.6 on solaris 2.8.

Before running a large update, I tried to set a specific rollback segment by:
Set transaction use rollback segment RBIG20;

The transaction runs for a while and fails with:

ORA-01555: snapshot too old: rollback segment number 29 with name "R27" too
Small

Any idea?

Thank you

Sergei
