How to work around ORA-03206 when running the RCU (Repository Creation Utility) used by ODI



During installation you may encounter the error
ORA-03206: maximum file size of (13107200) blocks in AUTOEXTEND clause is out of range

In my case, the RCU attempted to create a temporary tablespace with autoextend of 100G. This is too much for a smallfile tablespace, and the error is thrown.
I checked the database creation scripts, and it is indeed created with smallfile as the default tablespace type.

To solve the problem, alter your database default setting:

ALTER DATABASE SET DEFAULT BIGFILE TABLESPACE;

and retry the operation.
