Just another idea: Create an UNDO tablespace with autoextend. At least it's a nice method to find out where it grows to. -- Mit freundlichem Gruß Martin Klier Senior Oracle Database Administrator ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Klug GmbH integrierte Systeme Lindenweg 13, D-92552 Teunz Tel.: +49 9671/9216-245 Fax.: +49 9671/9216-112 mailto: martin.klier@xxxxxxxxxx www.klug-is.de ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Geschäftsführer: Johann Klug, Roman Sorgenfrei Sitz der Gesellschaft: Teunz, USt-ID-Nr.

Value for undoblks for particular sql is 13841 and my database size is 8kb.Does this mean that i need to have a undo tablespace size of select 8192*13841/1024/1024 from dual 108Gb ? Not the particular sql does a corelated update ofmere 72762 rows and the figure of 108Gb doesnt make much sense .This is a JDBC app and i dont have much idea if this sql is in some for loop or something. regards Hrishy regards Hrishy -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
