Solution Description:

Index rebuild online command internally creates a journal table to track of inserts and updates. This journal table size is limited to particular extent and you get this error when it crosses.

In this particular situation you have to rebuild your index without online clause.

SQL>   CREATE INDEX SCOTT.M_DEPART_A1 ON SCOTT.M_DEPART  (SCO_PARENT_DOCNAME, SCO_PARENT_LOCALREF, SCO_HIGH_CN, SCO_PARTITION_ID, SCO_TOCHILD_ROLE);

Index created.

SQL>  alter index SCOTT.M_DEPART_A1 rebuild;

Index altered.
