Error: add datafile to an tablespace

I have a 10g database in Sun machine.
I issued the following command and got this error. What the problem:
SQL> l
1 alter TABLESPACE "TEST" add DATAFILE
2 '/local/ORACLE/product/10.2.0/oradata/orcl/test_02.dbf' SIZE 10m
3* EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL UNIFORM SIZE 40960 SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO
SQL> /
EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL UNIFORM SIZE 40960 SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO
ERROR at line 3:
ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended
However, if I issue the following commanc, it went through
1 alter TABLESPACE "TEST" add DATAFILE
2* '/local/ORACLE/product/10.2.0/oradata/orcl/test_02.dbf' SIZE 10m
SQL> /
SQL>
Any help will be appraciated!

I believe that is the syntax for add datafile nothing else can be done other than this.
ADD TEMPFILE 'filespec' SIZE int K
[ AUTOEXTEND ON [NEXT int K | M]
[MAXSIZE {UNLIMITED|int K|int M}] ]

Why asm startwith with + sign? what happen add file in asm tablespace without using + sign,please explain with error no.

Hi folks,
I have one query why asm startwith with + sign? what happen add datafile file in table space,or add disk in disk group without using + sign ,please explain with error no.

hello,
+ sign is to indicate the diskgroup you intended to place datafile. this apply to all database files.
without + sign,will be place in ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory. there will be NO error.
see example here: without using +
SQL> create tablespace test45 datafile 'temdg' size 10m;
Tablespace created.
SQL> select name from v$datafile;

7 rows selected.
second example: with using + sign to specify diskgroup
SQL> create tablespace test55 datafile '+temdg' size 10m;
Tablespace created.
SQL> select name from v$datafile;

Autoextend user tablespace or add datafile

Hello,
My USERS tablespace had problem today when loading a file using sqlldr. It stopped loading halfway through the file.
The allocated is set to 1900 mb and the used was at 1850. I only have 1 datafile for users tablespace. I have autoextensible to YES.
Why did it not extend the tablespace when I should still have 2gb free??
I dropped a couple unused user tables and it reduced the used amount, then I was able reran the sqlldr load and it completed.
Should I create a new datafile
ALTER TABLESPACE USERS ADD DATAFILE ‘/usr/lib/oracle/xe/oradata/XE/users01.dbf’ SIZE 2000M AUTOEXTEND OFF;
or increase the allocation
ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE ‘/usr/lib/oracle/xe/oradata/XE/users.dbf’ RESIZE 3000M;
Thanks for the help...

Why did it not extend the tablespace when I should still have 2gb free??
Might be maxsize was defined at the time of tablespace creation
For example
SQL> select DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL('TABLESPACE', 'USERS') from dual;
DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL('TABLESPACE','USERS')
CREATE TABLESPACE "USERS" DATAFILE
'C:\ORACLE\ORACLEXE\ORADATA\XE\USERS.DBF' SIZE 104857600
AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 10485760[b] MAXSIZE 5120M
LOGGING ONLINE PERMANENT BLOCKSIZE 8192
EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL AUTOALLOCATE SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO
Should I create a new datafile
ALTER TABLESPACE USERS ADD DATAFILE
‘/usr/lib/oracle/xe/oradata/XE/users01.dbf’ SIZE
2000M AUTOEXTEND OFF;
or increase the allocation
ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE
‘/usr/lib/oracle/xe/oradata/XE/users.dbf’ RESIZE
3000M; It is good idea to add new file and having multiple file with same size.
Also in future if needed you can relocate datafile to reduce I/O contention.

Error while creating a new tablespace

Hi all,
i got the following errors when i tried to create a new tablespace in my database.
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level string
ORA-01655: unable to extend cluster string.string by string in tablespace string
can anyone suggest any possible reason?
thanks in advance..

Hi,
ORA-01655 unable to extend cluster string.string by string in tablespace string
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for cluster segment in tablespace.
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated
Pls check out the disk space. The command you issued is working for me and for all. Might be some errors in your disk.

Add datafile in a network drive

Hi,
I mapped in my NT machine a network disk, but when I try to create a datafile there, the next error message appear.
ALTER TABLESPACE CRM_DATA ADD DATAFILE 'h:\database\crm\dbs\CRM_TAB_5.DBF' SIZE 6000M

ORA-27040: skgfrcre: create error, unable to create file OSD-04002: unable to open file
O/S-Error: (OS 5) Access is denied.
Somebody know if I need to do something before for Oracle identified this network drive like a other local disk? Can I create datafiles in a network disk?
Thanks.

The architecture of Windows is due to this problem. Keep in mind that YOU do have this share available but the Oracle process has not. You yourself are the connecting user of the share and this share is availbale to you and not to the Oracle process. Oracle itselfs runs in the background (and not on your console) with another user (default Windows internal user: SYSTEM) and you cannot get this share available for this user. The previous reply (run the Oracle service using another DOMAIN user) will help.

Can I add datafile bigger then 2GB

Hi all,
Can I add datafile bigger then 2GB (on the raw device) to the tablespace ?
I get err:
ORA-01119 : error in creating database file '/opt/DISK/data02'

Aditional information : 1
And

when I use partition with size 2GB it is Ok.
Is it limitation by Linux ?
I have linux 7.1
and oracle 8.1.7
What can I do ?
thanks

If you want to use raw devices with linux you have to use the utility 'raw' to map the device. You could also use the Logical Volume Manager (or both)

Query in adding a datafile to the tablespace ?

Hi All,
A small qry? Suppose i am having a datafile .DBF of Size 26 GB , and now i want to add another Datafile to the tablespace. Then how to stop insertion of data into that 26 GB file , while the 2nd Datafile should start accepting the data. Is it an automatic process or we have to issuse some commands ??. Kindly provide some document links.
Regards

Thanks for the reply sir
But if we declare 3 datafiles at the time of DB
Creation then how is three datafiles handled.
Insertion of data is simultaneous in all of the three
files or in a single file?????The Insertion of data in the datafile can't be handled be you. Oracle manages automatically. To elaborate further the freelist in the segments are response the data insertion. Better solution for your scenario is create tablespace with ample no. of datafiles and then export and import utility.
with regards

Adding datafile automatically when tablespace is 90% full

Hi,
I have a tablesspace having a name user01.dbf(Auto extensible to 4 GB) user02.dbf(Auto extensible to 4GB) ..........
I am just thinking about automatically creating datafile(alter tablespace add datafile).
1. (total number of datafiel in tablespace) *4 - space used by dba_segments belonging to user tablespace. if it returns less then 1 GB space, then add a datafile.
And I will put it on CRONTAB. and it will run every 24/7.
Does not this look weired?
Advice:
1. Don't we have any option like the database server will trigger an event when it is 90% and I can trap this event and run a command to add a datafile. I know internally it will do the same but still I feel if you have a feature then why not use it.
Any information will be helpful in this regards. And the same question is for OS level do I have to check it every second, space on the file system?

Do one thing ,write a script which will check free space of your tablespaces like..
SELECT NAME FROM V$DATABASE;
select to_char(sysdate,'dd-MON-yyyy hh:mi:ss')Snap_ShotTime from dual;
SELECT Total.name "Tablespace Name",
nvl(free_space, 0) free_space,
nvl(total_space-free_space, 0) Used_space,
total_space
FROM
(select tablespace_name, sum(bytes/1024/1024) free_Space
from sys.dba_free_space
group by tablespace_name
) free,
(select b.name, sum(bytes/1024/1024) TOTAL_SPACE
from sys.v_$datafile a, sys.v_$tablespace B
where a.ts# = b.ts#
group by b.name
) Total
WHERE free.Tablespace_name(+) = Total.name
AND Tablespace_name <> 'PERFSTAT'
ORDER BY Total.name;
and find the %age of used space Vs free space.Enable your mail server which will send you the alerts.
Put in crotab file and set them accordingly..

Missing datafile from system-tablespace?

Hello!
We've got a major power-loss yesterday. After that our database does not start correct.
I got the message:
ORA-00600: Interner Fehlercode, Argumente: [kccpb_sanity_check_2], [9577], [9542], [0x0], [], [], [], []
After that I searched the forum and recreated the controlfiles and started recover database.
Now I always got the following error-message:
ORA-01173:Data dictionary indicates missing data file from system tablespace
I'm not really shure if I created another datafile for that tablespace. Even though there is no other datafile in the "oradata-directory".
Does anyone know how to go further?
