Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Tablespace block size limit / Windows
Lisa
Please excuse the dumb question, but I'll ask just to be safe. Are you trying to create a tablespace with a block size different from your instance's block size? Are you able to create a tablespace with any different size? I also dimly recall something about Windows and block size, but since I don't use Oracle on Windows so I promptly forgot it.

Subject: Tablespace block size limit / Windows
Hi everyone,=20
Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition, 9204, with disks allocated from 2 Clariion SANs
Several of these disks were formatted at 32k and 64k block size. I was under the impression the limitation on tablespace block size came from the os block size. I can't create a tablespace with a block size greater than 16k, it fails. =20
Metalink says this is a limitation of Windows.=20
Anyone run into this, and if so, are there any creative ways around this limit? I can't even open a TAR. It keeps kicking me out. Googling this returns nothing useful.
Thanks
