Re: Altering Freelist Groups in 10gR2 ?

We rarely had problems with LOBs and ASSM on 9204 rac. We have one app that only breaths CLOBS. The only issue (that caused us trouble) was with freeling temp LOBS. That was easily fixed by creating/destroying temp lob in another procedure inside the package. The lob got dutifully destroyed then.

It is still working fine on 10.1.0.4 RAC. on an average day that app creates and manipulates many many thousands of lobs each day.

Guess we are using the right container version after all. Raj
