Hi,

I got an awr report from a customer to analyze. In the top-5 wait events there is this event "Data file init write".
I cannot find anything about this; Google'd, searched this site and Oracle forums.
Does anybody know what exactly this depicts?

It's a wait while Oracle formats data blocks.
Do you have any data files that are autoextending?

There are a couple of Forum postings on Metalink about it, but not much information.

Thanks!
I suspected something like this. Mainly insert on 1 table is not performing, so I thought maybe this was due to this table/datafile extending..
