Datapump import consuming disk space

Hi all,
Windows server 2003
Oracle 10g
I'm trying to import a schema using datapump:
impdp username/password schemas=siebel directory=dpdir dumpfile=schema_exp.dmp status=60
It's importing but it's consuming massive amounts of disk space, over 40 gig now. Why is it consuming so much space just to import. I'm doing a reorg\, so I dropped the biggest production schema, and did the import. I didn't resize the datafiles, so where is all this extra disk space going?
Please help, this is a production site and I'm running out of time (and space)

Great thanks, the tablespaces are not the problem, it is the archivelogs. About a 100m a minute!
My issue started with the first import, not all the data was imported, meaning there where rows missing, I saw this when I did a row count. So I decided to do the import again (followed the same steps as mentioned earlier) If after this import the rows are still missing, I want to do a point in time recovery with rman, because then my export dump file must be corrupted, am I correct in saying this?

  • EMGC OC4J_EM Consuming disk space

    I am running EMGC 10.2.0.4 DB 10.2.0.3 on Linux RHEL4.
    My OC4J_EM procesess is consuming disk space at an alarming rate. However, as soon as I cycle the process, all of the disk space is released. I have checked the logs and haven't seen anything unusual. What file would grow then would remove itself following a cycle of the process?
    cheers

    I found the answer in Metalink arcticle Doc ID: Note:352130.1 . Per the article, here is the fix:
    Solution
    NOTE: The errors captured in the emoms log files can occur for many different reasons. They are only documented in this article to make it more searchable. Apply the following workaround ONLY if the initial problem of OC4J_EM process size is growing uncontrollably while the OC4J_EM heap size remains the same.
    To fix the issue, upgrade the jdk in the Grid Control OMS ORACLE_HOME to jdk 1.4.2_xx.

  • Apex/OHS issue:log files in opmn consume disk space

    Hi.
    I have installed OHS from Companion CD (10g Rel1) and the new Apex 3.0.
    There seems to be a problem because log files in opmn/logs are eating up my disk space. Apparently there's something missing or not configured yet.
    The exact error message is:

    Hi,
    I believe this is due to a conflict with something else using that port number (6100). One solution would be to edit the opmn config file and change the port from 6100 to something else (such as 6101).

  • Client Import --  low disk space error

    Hi experts,

    I was doing client copy using SCC8 from Prod to Dev Server, total size of request file is 5 GB, while Importing request thru STMS, import stopped due to low space for log file in Development server.
    Is there any way to stop the logs while importing a client . Suggest the way out.
    thanks in advance

    You can put the database in 'SIMPLE' mode to stop logging during an heavy activity.
    If you want to 'continue' with the 'logging' then you need to take backup frequently to prevent low space for log file problem. Execute the transactional log backup with more frequency during the long and heavy activity.

  • Local Backup consuming disk space

    Hi all;
    My MBA has only 128Gb space and 25% of this is occupied by something that I am being shown is 'Backup'. This is nothing that I, as far as am aware, have set. The machine was update to Yosemite recently and I am not aware if this space was the same or not when I had Mavericks.
    I would appreciate comments and notes on how to clear and reclaim this space.
    Regards
    I.

    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself.

  • Whenever I deploy project to OC4J server by JDeveloper, disk space reduced.

    Dear all,
    When I deploy the project to oc4j server (inside jdeveloper folder), my hard disk space reduce. As I need to develop applications and deploy it to the oc4j server constantly, the disk space reduce and reduce (5mb each time), but I don't know why the deployment consumed disk space whenever I deploy the project. In long run, all my disk space has been run out.
    Do you all know why it consumes disk space when I deploy using Jdeveloper? How could I release the space? Thank you.
    David

    Check your temp folders. JDeveloper has the tendency to leave some ear and war files lying around, certainly if you are working with webcenter projects and portlets. On my machine, I created a script that runs at login to reclaim some of that space:
    c:
    cd %TEMP%
    del *.* /f /q
    {code}
    Hope this helps,

  • Dbconsole - disk space usage

    I am not using grid control but I am using dbconsole.
    Does dbconsole consume disk space on the server?
    If so, do I have to run any purge routines to free up disk space?
    And in which directories does dbconsole consume disk space?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Insufficient Disk Space: What do I do? I do not want to delete all of my projects. If I delete them and then empty the trash it will free up some space but I have deleted way more than I am tryig to import.

    I keep getting a message when I try to import pics. Insufficient disk space. What do I do? I do not want to delete all of my pics!

    Easiest thing to do would be to buy an external hard drive and move your Aperture library to that drive.

  • Error Importing - Disk Space when there is plenty of Space

    Hello,
    I am trying to import small .avi movies into iMovies. When I do, it states that there is a Error Importing due to not enough Disk Space. I have 24GB of disk space available, however, inside the iMovie application it states that there is only 20kb available. Has anyone come across this?
    Thank you
    Leoville

    I had the same problem. The following steps worked for me. 
    1. In iTunes on my Mac, on the Summary page for my iPhone, under "Options" I clicked "sync only checked songs and videos."
    2. On the "Music" page, I clicked Sync Music and then clicked "Selected playlists, albums," etc. underneath.
    3. IMPORTANT! make sure that the "automatically fill free space with songs" is NOT clicked. My computer kept clicking that one automatically and I had to keep turning it off.
    4. I clicked one playlist or album at a time and watched the status bar (below) to see how much space was being taken up (the blue line).
    5. When I had as much music as I wanted, I clicked Apply.
    It turned out that I had one play list which, for some unknown reason, had a huge number of songs on it and that was clogging up the works. When I unchecked it, I had enough room for the rest.
    I hope this helps!

  • Can't import photos from camera -"Insufficient disk space on volume"?

    Please excuse my ignorance if there is a fix for this that I haven't found here.... I reinstalled iLife '11 yesterday because iPhoto would not recognize the camera. Now it recognizes the camera but it won't import the photos. I've tried all the suggestions, trashed the cache, the preference file, restarted, created a new library and I still can't import the photos from the camera to iPhoto because it says "insufficient disk space on volume." I have plenty of space on my hard drive. I can import through Image Capture but why go the extra step when importing to iPhoto was so very easy before? Can anyone help with this?

    This has been reported - not sure if there ever was a solution or not - search the forums to find the threads
    you can try renewing the iPhoto preference file to see if that helps -
    A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
    This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

    For what the Apple Store's charge you can buy almost buy a new computer.
    Just for giggles I brought my old laptop in for a drive upgrade and asked, they wanted $600 for a drive that only cost $120 at the time and it was a slow 5,400 RPM drive. The new Mac's of a similar make were going for $1000.
    I did the drive replacement myself, got a faster drive of better quality for $300 instead.
    Then another time I asked for a RAM upgrade from 4GB to 8GB, they wanted to charge $400 + $35 for the labor.
    The same RAM is on Crucial.com for $90 and all I need is a 00 micro phillips screwdriver.
    So you see what's going on here.
    I think what you should do, if your out of warranty/AppleCare, is to call up the local PC tech guy who also does Mac's and have them fix you right up.
    They can offer more personalized care which you need. Clone your old drive to the new and everything.
    With Apple they are overworked at the Genius Bar and just place roadblocks so you buy a new machine instead.
    For instance, all new iMac's now have proprietary drive software installed on the hard drives for heat monitoring. So now the only choice a user has is to bring their iMac into a Apple Store for a very expensive drive upgrade, which a person then decides the money is better spent buying a new machine.

  • I have plenty of space on my hard drive (500GB), but when I plug in my iPhone there is a window stating the pone cannot be backed up because of lack of disk space. The same occurs with attempting to import CD's into iTunes.

    I have plenty of space on my hard drive (500GB), but when I plug in my iPhone there is a window stating the pone cannot be backed up because of lack of disk space. The same occurs with attempting to import CD's into iTunes. The hard disk was replaced recently in order to gain extra memory. Is there some sort of limit set up from the original hard drive causing this problem?

    Boot up from your Snow Leopard Install DVD while holding down the "c" key.
    Select the language you wish to use, and then choose "Disk Utility" from the menu bar.
    Your HD should appear in a panel on the left hand side of the window which opens. Select it and then click on the "repair disk" button in the right hand section of the window.
    If Disk First aid is unable to complete the repair you will need to use a stronger 3rd party utility like DiskWarrior or TechTool Pro.

    When i import movies from my iPhoto app to my iMovie app does it make a copy (thereby using double the hard disk space) or does it link to my iPhoto app? The reason i ask is i want to archive all my videos from iPhoto/iMovie. Do i need to archive the movies in iPhoto AND iMovie? HELP!

    Hi - I'm having the same problem with freeing up space on the HD. If I can't free space if I'm using any part of the clip, how can I split up the clips so that I can discard the part I won't use? This is crazy! I have only 4 GB of free space left!
    Also, I've tried to transfer the project file to my external HD but I keep getting an error saying I can't transfer it. I've been told this is because I don't have enough space on the HD for the transfer. I tried a similar transfer with another computer with plenty of HD space but the same error occurred. Is there a way to break up the project file into small pieces for the transfer (I'm thinking the whole movie file is just too big)?
    Thanks for any info!

  • Importing from iphoto requires a lot of disk space

    Hi,
    I just purchased Aperture and am in the process of importing my iPhoto library. I followed Apple's video suggestion but was concerned as I started doing it on my own computer.
    I was going to import from Iphoto and leave the files in the same location. But I immediately got a warning that this would take up 9gb of space.
    1. is that permanent or just requiring 9gb while the import takes place?
    2. if I'm using the iPhoto library and am leaving them there, why is it going to cost me so much disk space? (my laptop is limited on space, hence my concern
    3. Am I better off doing a 1-time import to a new location and deleting the iphoto library - yes I already backed up (I'll be using Aperture here on out)?
    thanks!

    TD,
    thanks for that. I was also asking if it was common and correct that the import and leaving the library where it is would cost 9gb?

  • Insufficient disk space on Aperture Library volume to import iphoto library

    3 Importing iphoto library to Aperture questions:
    (1) Finally switching to Aperture because too many photos to manage in iphoto. When importing iphoto library it gives me the message: Insufficient DIsk Space - "There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need an additional 83GB of free space."
    The photos are all on an external drive which has 150GB free space. I also tried moving the aperture library to another hard drive which has lots of free space. I want the Aperture library to reside on the external drive so I can share it between my laptop and desktop.
    I tried this at the apple store and it was going to work. I came home and it now says it needs 125GB free space. Is this a function of which computer you use to import the library? What can I do because I can't spend hours at the apple store if it may take that long to import all the photos from the library.
    (2) Is there an optimum way to import a large library, rather than all at once?
    (3)Used iphoto manager to create a project library from an iphoto library. Now have 2 good libraries to import, one with about 35k photos, the other with about 8k. The 8k will have some duplicates from the larger one. When I import that one I don't want to import duplicates, but do want to retain the organization and labeling of those duplicates in terms of which albums and events they are in. Is that possible?
    Thanks!

    Or use Aperture's built-in and suggested way to deal with the problem of a Library outgrowing your system drive: make many of your Image's Originals referenced rather than managed.
    Aperture lets you store any Image's Original on any locally-mounted drive.  Moving your Image's Originals from inside your Library (in which case they are "managed") to outside the Library (in which case they are "referenced") is easy -- as it moving them back.
    The two main complications that arise from using Referenced Originals are:
    - you must back up your Referenced Originals in addition to backing up your Library.  Backing up your Library _does not_ back up your Referenced Originals
    - you must not make any changes to your Referenced Originals with any program other than Aperture.  _Do not_ use Finder to move, rename, etc.
