Archivelogs filling up the disk space - Oracle 11g

Oracle Database 11g on RHEL4
This morning the Archivelogs were filling up the disk space at a very high rate (1.3G in 5 Mins). For now it has stopped. Please assist!

1. Check what is going on in the database.Seems like some huge dml process are going on.
2. You can increase the redo logfile size.Currently its around 48MB, incresae it to 100MB.While he probably should increase his redo log size, that will have zero impact on the amount of disk space consumed by the archivelog files. If the OP is generating 1gb/min of redo, he will consume 1gb/min of disk space for archivelogs. It may be with 1 ea. 4gb file every 4 minutes or 1 ea. 256mb files every 15 seconds, but it still comes out the same in the end. Redo file size influences how often a log switch occurs and the size of the individual archivelog files, but it has no bearing on the amount of redo that has to be archived over a given period.

Remove or free data from the disk space

Hi All,
How to remove or free data from the disk space. Considering most of the data in the directories are junk.
Is there any T-code from the appliaction layer or we have to do at operating system or database level.
Regards,
Jitender

Hi,
As far as i know we canot delete data from data files.But i think u can shrink the file.
But not suggestable.You can delete the juck or old data in the usr/trans/log/files.
Also delete the files in usr/sap/trans/eps/in.

What can be done so that these files do not eat up all the disk space.

Dear Adviser
This is NOT a bug report or an enhancement request.
We are looking for advice on a customer support call.
We are using iPlanet Webserver 4.1 SP7 and iPlanet Directory
Server 4.12 on Solaris 2.8.
We are checking to see if there is any engineering
documentation or quick pointers on LDAP database file
sizes and cache file sizes that may relate to a
reported problem.
Thank you for your time and co-operation in advance.
We have been working on a TIBCO/Portal Builder customer
issue that does not seem to have guidance in end
user documentation. This is related to a significant
increase in LDAP and cache file sizes (which at this
point do NOT seem to affect any performance). Is this
something that you are aware of from your QA/performance
tests? The problem seems to have suddenly cropped
up and we are attempting to isolate the triggerring event.
We started with the possibility that it is
a. Solaris Platform issue
OR
b. LDAP issue
We have done several experiments to isolate specific
issues as described below. We have researched
Sun/iPlanet web site and technical sites on the net.
Currently, we believe that the LDAP database size is increasing
because the Portal has been configured with pages
that have a lot of "Personalized" panes. Users are visiting
these pages, and getting automatically subscribed to these
panes, which add corresponding entries in the LDAP server.
Please find below the listing of all the files (from LDAP
DB directory) which are growing very fast. Kindly advise what can be
done so that these files do not eat up all the disk space.

This may be perfectly normal behavior for the LDAP server. If some application is adding a lot of data to the server, the database will necessarily grow. You can look at the access log to find out the IP address of the client, the BIND dn of the client, and the operations from that client. Perhaps this will help you narrow down the culprit.

What are the disk space requirements for CC2014?

Yes, Adobe has the system requirements for each INDIVIDUAL app in CC2014 listed, but they're all listed separately. Since I'll be installing the entire suite on my new machine, I'd like to know the disk space requirements for the ENTIRE suite.
Thanks

There's a summary in the table at the bottom of the page here:

WSUS Server Database maintenance--WSUSCOntents Folder size is taking all the disk space (75GB)

Hi ,
We have set up WSUS Server 3.2 on Windows server 2008 R2 and set the Disk size as 80 GB. The WSUSContents folder is taking away all the disk space and as a result WSUS Server stopped working.
Details:
1. There are no other languages selected other than English.
2.There are no Downstream servers configured.
3.Server cleanup wizard runs for 10 seconds and it shows the below report .
4. Is there any script available to purge the WSUS database?

The WSUSContents folder is taking away all the disk space and as a result WSUS Server stopped working.
You need to perform additional administration on the server other than just running the Server Cleanup Wizard. Running the wizard with no other administration will accomplish nothing of significance.
Removing unneeded update approvals
Of course, running out of room on the disk drive may well have corrupted the database, at which point the only reliable means of recovery is to install a NEW instance of WSUS with a fresh database.

LR 5.5 upgrade. I only get the the 32 bit set up and an error when the 64 bit set up should be created. It says not enough disk space and no access to write. The disk space is ok and the 32 bit file was indeed created.

Hi Rob, Thanks for your input. The temp location is on the C drive with 228 GB free space. My other drives have 123 GB and 204 GB of free space. I can see how the 32 bit set up is perfectly extracted when it stops when coming to the 64 bit set up. I have done the exercise several times and also made new downloads. I am using Norton 360 and Malwarebytes anti-malware but the dowload from Adobe should be trusted.

You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your iMac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Look though other Apple Mail folders like the junk mail and delete the mail that is in there. Look through your sent items folders and see there is any mail in there that can be deieted.
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Other things you can do to gain space.
Once you have around 15 GBs regained, do a search, download and install OmniDisk Sweeper.
This app will help you locate files that you can move/archive and/or delete from your system.
STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
Good Luck!

How do I increase the disk space ?

I recently bought solaris for Intel. I success fully installed
with dual boot. When I am trying to install other software I got
a message saying insufficient diskspace. How do I increase the
space or set up a new partition.
srinivas

Hi ,
For your problem I would suggest following steps.
Use Format command to check whether any of disk partition or disk space is not utilised. If you have consumed all the disk space then only option to you is add new disk. If entire disk space has been utilised then you can't add more disk space on same disk. You need to have additional disk.
If you have any of the partion is still not used then you can merge the adjecent partition with it. Re-partition the disk. Here just ensure that if you have valid data on any of the patition which is going to merge with adjecent partition, then take backup ( ufsdump) as when you change boundary of partition you will need to make file system with newfs command which removes all data from that partition.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,

What is the diffrences between Oracle 11g standard & enterprise edition

Hi,
Can anybody please tell the diffrences between Oracle 11g standard & enterprise edition in detail.
Thanks in advance,
Anindya

Oracle Enterprise Edition:
Enterprise Edition is the full (top of the range) version or the Oracle Database Server. Options like RAC, Partitioning, Spatial, etc. can be purchased separately to enhance the functionality of the database.
Oracle Standard Edition:
Standard Edition is designed for smaller businesses and enterprises. It offers a subset of the features/ functionality implemented in Enterprise Edition. Database options like Data Guard, Partitioning, Spatial, etc. is not available with Standard Edition (from 10g one can use RAC with Standard Edition). Standard Edition can only be licensed on servers with a maximum capacity of four processors.
Oracle Standard Edition One:
Standard Edition One is a low cost, entry-level version of the Oracle Standard Edition database server. Standard Edition One can only be licensed on small servers with a maximum capacity of two processors.
Oracle Personal Edition:
Personal Oracle is a single user version of the database server. It is mostly the same as Enterprise Edition, but doesn't support advanced options like RAC, Streams, XMLDB, etc.
Oracle Lite:
Oracle Light is a database engine that can be used on mobile platforms like cell phones and PDA's.
Oracle XE:
Express Edition (XE) is a free, downloadable version of the Oracle database server. Oracle XE can only be used on single processor machines. It can only manage up to 4 GB of data and 1 GB of memory. ISVs can embed XE in 3rd party products and redistribute it freely.

What are the steps in oracle 11g DBREFRESH

Dear Techies,
Please help me on below. I followed all steps in db refresh
I have done till
Alter database open resetlogs
status is open
what are the steps remaining in oracle 11g dbrefresh from PRD to QTY. is there any post steps to drop old ops$users.
Please let me know.
Thank you
Best Regards
RJ

Hi Gurpal,
Thank you for your valuable reply
Do I need to do your mentioned steps after below steps
RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROL FILE UNTIL CANCEL;
AUTO.
once recovery is done CANCEL.
Alter database open resetlogs.
status is open.
AS YOU MENTIONED
Make sure listener and DB should be up.
Determine Schema Owner
SQL> SELECT OWNER FROM DBA_TABLES WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'T000';
Check the OWNER of “SAPUSER”
SQL>SELECT OWNER FROM DBA_TABLES WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'SAPUSER';
Create OPS$ User
Use the oradbusr.sql script. This script is attached to the note 50088. The script is valid for Oracle and UNIX. Use the following syntax
SQL> @ORADBUSR.sql SAPR3 UNIX (SID) X
Check the OWNER of “SAPUSER" after exceute command
SQL>SELECT OWNER FROM DBA_TABLES WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'SAPUSER';
If the system returns an owner <owner> other than OPS$<sid>ADM (OPS$SIDADM) of PRD, you must
delete the relevant SAPUSER tables:
SQL> DROP TABLE “OPS$SIDADM".SAPUSER;
and after that check the output of (R3trans -d)
set the value in profile parameter
To ensure no background jobs after the start (Rdisp/wp_no_btc =0)
(Login/no_automatic_user_sapstar =0 )
or Any table spaces need to be create ???? PSAPTEMP ??? or any.
Thanks & Regards
RJ

My hard drive is getting consumed as I sit and watch. I don't have much on my computer, but it tells me the disk space is full.

I am getting a message that my disk space is full and when I check on the hard drive capacity, I can watch it going down. I don't have much stored on my hard drive, so I don't know what's using up all the space.

If you can see it disappearing before your eyes, it is likely to be some runaway process. Possibly a log filling up.
Open the Console application and click to system.log and at the bottom, see if there is some process repeating endlessly.
Post the last several lines of that log if you think it is relevant. Don't post the entire log though, just the end bit.

How do I remove iWork 06 and 08, I have 09, and I desperately need the disk space.

   I am running the latest version of Snow Leopard on a 2006/7 MacBook Pro. After teaching myself how to use a mac, and how to maintain it, I wish to God I could go back and do full, clean installs of each OS upgrade...alas, hindsight is always 20/20. But thats for another time.
   My immediate issue is disk space: Using Space Gremlin & browsing my HD I realized I have 3 massive iwork libraries/files/folders. iwork '06, '08, '09. Im certain I dont require all 3 considering I only use most current version (however the previous two take up gigabytes of space). Is there a safe way to delete them? Will the papers written, work saved from '06-on still be able to be opened using the most current version? If so, I wonder why Apple doesnt just delete the old version each time you upgrade?
   I have also deleted all podcasts and photos after moving them to an external, yet Im certain that theres gotta be a way to 1) combine my itunes libraries from my two user accounts (I used the same login on both), but have had issues combining songs on my most used account so I can delete the other library for space. After accomplishing that feat I would then like to learn a method to run my itunes and iphoto libraries from my external HD; if so, could someone please help me learn how to do so seamlessly?
   I am in your debt, anyone that can answer these ?s....
Thank you very much!
Troy
ummm, below it says im running 10.6.7, yet my computer states im using 10.6.8?? should I be concerned?

First, iTunes and iPhoto -
iTunes Sharing;
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1203
Moving iTunes to another drive;
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1449
Moving iTunes to ext for backup;
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1751
Moving iPhoto Library;
http://gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/03/02/qa-transplanting-you-iphoto-libra ry/
The iWork issue should simply be a matter of dragging the iWork '06 and iWork '08 folders to the Trash and emptying it.
However, I'm a bit wary as you say they're using several GB? The actual application folders should be around 650MB each (that's the folder containing the three applications).
Check those folders for extraneous files if they're bigger.
There are folders in Macintosh HD > Library > Application Support > iWork '06 (or '08) which should be around 230-250MB each.
There will also be a few .plist files, but their sizes will be negligible and it's not worth bothering with them.
All files created in earlier versions should open fine in iWork '09 versions. Always pays to try them of course!
