RE: Weekend Crunch Help - Freelist Groups

Thanks, I created a 128K LMT and things worked, however, there are still a ton of objects with a 2GB initial extent so I had to resort to getting the DDL using DDLWizard since I just wanted the objects in a small DB, this was an export with no rows.

The freelist group blocks have to be allocated just after the segment header block in the *first* extent. Since in your case the extents have only 8 blocks, you cannot specify 10 freelists groups. You should either change the size of the extents or lower the number of freelist groups.
