Hi all,
We need to rebuild our table and index segments. I guess we wouldn't have problems rebuilding the indexes online. However, I don't see any way to move tables online. Of course, I can issue ALTER TABLE ... MOVE ONLINE, but this would invalidate all indexes of the table. I will have to rebuild them and this would take hours. We cannot afford an outage of even seconds (it would be an outage since our OLTP application will just time-out without these indexes). I couldn't find the way to update indexes together with tables. I know there is an option to update global indexes while modifying a partition but could spot nothing about non-partitioned tables and maintenance of indexes together with table move.

Please let me know if I miss something or the is some work-around for this.

Thanks,
Alex
