the “manage tablespace” privilege – update

some time ago I blogged about the managed tablespace privilege and pointed out that there is either a software or documentation bug as this privilege also allows renaming tablespaces. according to oracle support this is a documentation issue and not a software bug. additionally these operations are allowed, too, if you grant the privilege:

alter tablespace nologging;
alter tablespace logging;
alter tablespace force logging;
alter tablespace no force logging;
