Explain how to prevent tablespace fragmentation in oracle.Tablespace fragmentation can be prevented by using PCTINCREASE command. PCTINCREASE is the percentage a new subsequent extent will grow. This value should be ideally set to 0 or 100 to avoid tablespace fragmentation. Alternate and strange values for PCTINCREASE results in strange sizes of extents. Same size of each extent of all segments must be used.
