This BRSPACE function alters indexes. For more information, see Altering an Index with BR*Tools.
Function options:
-a|-action: specifies the action to alter indexes
Syntax: -a|-action coalesce|parallel|shrink
coalesce merges internal index data
parallel sets the degree of parallelism for queries
shrink shrinks the index segments online (Oracle 10g or higher)
Default: none, since you must always specify the action
-d|-degree: specifies the degree for parallel queries
Syntax: -d|-degree <degree>
1 specifies normal serial processing
>1 specifies parallel query
Default: 0 (use Oracle default)
-i|-index: specifies the indexes to be altered
Syntax:
Syntax: -i|-index all|allsel|[<owner>.]<index>|
[<owner>.][<prefix>]%[<suffix>]|
[<owner>.][<prefix>]*[<suffix>]|<index_list>
where:
all or “%” means preselect
allsel or “*” means final select:

Default: none, since you must always specify an index to alter
-o|-owner: defines the SAP owner of the indexes to be altered - useful in Multiple Components in One Database (MCOD) configurations
Syntax: -o|-owner <owner>|<owner list>
<owner> or <owner list> specifies the name of the SAP owner
Default: no default in MCOD, otherwise the single SAP owner
-s|-tablespace: specifies the tablespace of the indexes to be altered
Syntax: -s|-tablespace <tablespace>|<tablespace list>
<tablespace> or <tablespace list> specifies the tablespace name(s)
Default: none
-t|-table: specifies the table of the index(es) to be altered
Syntax:
Syntax: -t|-table all|allsel|[<owner>.]<table>|
[<owner>.][<prefix>]%[<suffix>]|
[<owner>.][<prefix>]*[<suffix>]|<table_list>
where:
all or “%” means preselect
allsel or “*” means here also preselect:
