Hello Tom,

Please help me!
I attended to create a dictionary tablespace, but it generated an error as follows:

SQL> create tablespace tools01
2 datafile 'c:\ora92\oradata\u05\tools01.dbf' size 100M
3 extent management dictionary
4 ;
create tablespace tools01
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-12913: Cannot create dictionary managed tablespace

Thank you very much indeed!

Excellent -- that is perfect, for the simple reason that there is 0% chance you actually WANT A DICTIONARY managed tablespace. but in any case this results from:

[tkyte@localhost tkyte]$ !oerr
oerr ora 12913
12913, 00000, "Cannot create dictionary managed tablespace"
// *Cause: Attemp to create dictionary managed tablespace in database
// which has system tablespace as locally managed
// *Action: Create a locally managed tablespace.
[tkyte@localhost tkyte]$



When system is a perfect LMT, all tablespaces will be perfect LMT's.
