Considerations
When the value of the external_table_disk_cache_max_percentage parameter is reduced, the system automatically evicts the excess disk cache until the requirement is met. When the value of this parameter is set to 0, the system does not use the disk cache for external table data.
Examples
Set the maximum proportion of the disk cache space for external tables to 60% of the datafile_size.
obclient> ALTER SYSTEM SET external_table_disk_cache_max_percentage = 60;
