SAP Note 599694 - LMTS autoallocate: Extent allocation

Component : Oracle - BW ORACLE

Summary :
SAP Note discusses enhancements concerning extent allocations in Locally Managed Tablespaces (LMTS) with autoallocate attributes. It outlines standardized next extent sizes: 64K, 1M, 8M, 64M, facilitating reuse and reduced external fragmentation. Oracle independently sets the next extent based on former segment sizes, simplifying management and limiting configurable options. The note also touches upon the behavior under varying initial settings, detailing how initial sizes affect the distribution of extent sizes and offer examples of resultant segment configurations. Crucially, converting from dictionary-managed to locally-managed tablespaces might significantly increase storage requirements, especially in systems like BW with numerous small partitions.
