Explanation

In traditional Oracle rollback segment architecture (pre-undo tablespace), a rollback segment must allocate a minimum of TWO extents before it can be used for transaction rollback information. This is a fundamental requirement for rollback segment initialization. The first extent contains the segment header, and at least one additional extent is needed for transaction data.
