doubt in adding extent

Hi all
Greetings from Richards
my doubt is in adding extents.
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d1 f 32
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d2 f 2784
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d3 f 2112
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d4 f 2784
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d5 f 1792
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d6 f 32
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d7 v 1792
in the above application, the last extent is a variable one with size 1792,after adding another one fixed extent with size 1792..the result will be
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d1 f 32
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d2 f 2784
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d3 f 2112
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d4 f 2784
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d5 f 1792
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d6 f 32
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d7 f 32
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d8 f 1792
I know only last extent an be a variable extent but

how the variable extent size changed from 1792 to 32 and why?

Is the 1st example the output of prostrct list taken immediately prior to adding the extent? Or, could it possibly be an old and out of date .st file that doesn't reflect a previous attempt to add .d7? (Or, did you maybe try to add the extent twice?)

It changed it to the default size of an empty extent. It was variable but had no actuel data in it so it was "truncated" to a default empty extent with the fixed size of 32 (because you didn't provide any f... parameter).
 
hi Palthe and Tom,
u r right,the extent has got its default value 32.but i have mentioned the size for the variable extent know say 1792...then how that 1792 got changed to 32...
incase if i haven't mentioned the size for variable extent means ok it wil changed to f and got its default value 32...tats fine

but i have clearly mentioned the variable size before adding the extent.even in this case the variable can be changed to f...but the size should not be changed know say after adding the extent, the f extent should have 1792(theextent which i have coloured second green)
means,


d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d1 f 32
d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d2 f 2784

d "order":13,32;1 /u01/richie/db/sportsDB/example_13.d6 f 32

It is unclear, to me at least, how I would go about attempting to reproduce your results so that I could either enlighten you or have my own personal moment of doubt.
