START_REDEF_TABLE Creates Index in SYSTEM Tablespace

(Doc ID 1914654.1)

Last updated on DECEMBER 06, 2016

Applies to:

Oracle Database - Enterprise Edition - Version 11.2.0.1 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

In case of redefining a table using a partitioned interim table, an index is  created on that interim table. Since the interim table is partitioned, the tablespace property is associated with partitions. Inheriting from the table will use SYSTEM. It causes a problem later as the SYSTEM tablespace is small.
