Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1) New Features

These are the features introduced in the current release.
 Server manageability features are introduced in 'Server Manageability' on page 1-26.
 Automatic system task maintenance is discussed in Chapter 23, 'Managing Automatic System Tasks Using the Maintenance Window'.
 Bigfile tablespaces
Oracle Database lets you create single-file tablespaces, called bigfile
tablespaces, which can contain up to 232 or 4G blocks. The benefits of bigfile
tablespaces are the following:
– They significantly enhance the storage capacity of an Oracle Database.
– They reduce the number of datafiles needed for an ultra large database.
– They simplify database management by providing datafile transparency.

See'Supporting Bigfile Tablespaces During Database Creation' on page 2-23
and 'Bigfile Tablespaces' on page 8-9.

 Multiple default temporary tablespace support for SQL operations You can create a temporary tablespace group that can be specifically assigned to users in the same way that a single temporary tablespace is assigned. A tablespace group can also be specified as the default temporary tablespace for the database.
See 'Multiple Temporary Tablespaces: Using Tablespace Groups' on page 8-21.
 Rename tablespace
The RENAME TO clause of the ALTER TABLESPACE statement enables you to
rename tablespaces.
See 'Renaming Tablespaces' on page 8-32.
 Cross-platform transportable tablespaces
Tablespaces can be transported from one platform to another. The RMAN
CONVERT command is used to do the conversion.
See 'Transporting Tablespaces Between Databases: A Procedure and Example'
on page 8-45.
 SYSAUX tablespace
Oracle Database creates an auxiliary system tablespace called SYSAUX at
database creation. This tablespace can be used by various Oracle Database
features and products, rather than saving their data in separate tablespaces or
in the SYSTEM tablespace.
See 'Creating the SYSAUX Tablespace' on page 2-17 and 'Managing the
SYSAUX Tablespace' on page 8-34.
 Automatic Storage Management
Automatic Storage Management provides a logical volume manager integrated
with Oracle Database, eliminating the need for you to purchase a third-party
product. Oracle Database creates Oracle-managed files within user-defined disk
groups that provide redundancy and striping.
See Chapter 12, 'Using Automatic Storage Management'.
 Drop database
The new DROP DATABASE statement lets you delete a database and all of its
files that are listed in the control file.
