Hi all:

I'm seeing something odd with the undo segments in Oracle 9.2. I have a 1G undo tablespace and am trying to import a 200M table. This is the only transaction going on at the time and it is failing because it is running out of space. When I check the undo segments I see TWO undo segments of a significant size. One that is used by my import and one more, which eats up about a half of the tablespace. I thought that Oracle would use up the space taken by this "other" segment, but it doesn't and my import fails. What am I not knowing about the undo segments and oracle9.2?

thanks for any help

Gene
