One of the things that I’m really proud of with that whole FAQ is that every page has a date and version number on it. And in that particular conrtibution you’ve even got the explicit warning that: “Of course, as versions of Oracle change, you may have to keep updating the definitions of your views to cater for new features.” The approach, and the comment, should appear much more frequently all over Oracle community.

You’re right, of course, it didn’t start as a question – I had just jotted a few details, URLs etc. into a draft note, and then wrote it up some days later without checking back the exact context.

I started the thread but it was not a question but just something I wanted to share.
Sometimes you have to use dba_extents unless you want to dig in the x$-tables.
A couple of weeks I was called in to help recover as much as possible from a large database with corruptions and from which a number of archives where missing.
To be able to determine what segments where involved we needed dba_extents.

Regards Hans-Peter

Here is a view that is similar to dba_extents and dba_free_space, but optimized for an access by file_id and block_id :

You can also see it in Metalink Note Id: 379408.1 – but poorly formatted
