I'm curious as to why you'd set autoextend on and not set a maxsize?  You'll 
still need to monitor how much disk space is being allocated but you'll have a 
stopping point to keep the UNDO from taking all of the available space if the 
odd transaction hits that consumes unusually large amounts of UNDO.

Oracle Admins,

My Oracle 10.2 Undo tablespace Auto Extend feature is not turned on.
 
That seems old school me. 

Any body know of a good reason, other than to watch available disk space, to no 
utilize auto extend for my undo table space? 

Thank you,
POB.
