We are currently on Oracle 8.1.7.3 on VMS and are starting the planning to upgrade to 9.2.0.5 later this year. Early next year we are planning on implementing RAC. I have heard/read that LMT are required for RAC. We are currently on dictionary managed per vendor mandate but will be able to use LMT by the time we go to RAC. My (long winded) question is whether the DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.TABLEPSACE_MIGRATE_TO_LOCAL is good enough to implement LMT for RAC. I understand that we won't have all the positives of LMT, but we are currently at 1.75 terabytes and I would not be looking forward to exporting and importing it tablespace by tablespace. Any thoughts or comments are greatly appreciated! Thanks Todd Sheetz Senior Database Administrator Aurora Health Care Who's the more foolish?
