Help in  temperory  tablespace

Hi
Could be bit silly question
can someone please tell me what is the usage of the temp tablespace in oracle 8i database what could be the max size of the files in that tablespace, is that tablespace recycled when it is full . i am asking this question coz i am often encounter the problem temp tablespace full which is apx 2 gb. when i run some database jobs .
Thanks in Advance

Temporary tablespace is used for on disk sorting. The natural of temporary tablespace is recycling the segments usage as needed.
You should see some usage of this tablespace when you have sorting activities in your database for example, query with order by, group by or index building etc..
One thing you could do is find out which activities causing out of temporary tablespace problem. If it's a query, can you tune the query to use less sorting?

  • Help on resizing tablespace

    i have a tablespace with 23 datafiles of varying sizes, with a total size of 91,060MB, it has consumed 79,457MB. Would it help the performance of the database if I change the size of the individual datafile to have the same size? e.g. 10 to 20Gig each?
    What would you suggest I do? The important thing is to avoid or lessen database downtime.
    I have a TEMP tablespace which has a size of 22,074MB, it's always full, is this normal and what would you suggest.

    Thanks for your response.
    Tablespace size, or getting the data files the same size, has very little to do with performance.
    -----thank you for this info.
    Using the files effectively has a lot to do with performance.
    For example, are the files on RAID striped disk? Or are they all on the same disk? (If on the same, every request for info from the disk is going to cause the heads to move and cause all other possible requests to wait for that to finish ... very inefficient!)
    ----yes the files are on RAID striped disk.
    Do you have enough memory assigned available for outside the database (not part of the SGA) that could be used for sorting, to avoid spilling sorts to the temp tablespace?
    ----how can I check this? kindly help
    Do you have enough memory, or too much memory, assigned to the SGA? Are you using the SGA efffectively?
    -----how can I check this? kindly help
    How are you arriving at the conclusion that the 'temp tablespace is full'? If you use the same info as the permanent tablespace, you are barking up the wrong tree - the temp tablespace SHOULD be full of temp segments. The question should be "how many of these segments are actually in use?"
    ------When I look at the temp tablespace in the Enterprise Manager, it states 99% used.
    What version of the database is this? What optimization techique are you using? Have you looked at the Performance Tuning document in the doc set for your database?
    -----9iR1. No optimization technique used. No I haven't looked at the performance tuning, but I'm studying it right now. sorry i'm just new to this.

    Thanks!Hi,
    I think you need to wait until there's no active rollback segments in the old undotbs before you can drop it. You can also restart the instance to force Oracle to release the old undotbs.

  • Need help with interpreting tablespace usage script

    Hi,
    I have a script to find all the used and free spaces of a datafiles. The script is as below:
    SELECT Substr(df.tablespace_name,1,20) "Tablespace Name",
    Substr(df.file_name,1,40) "File Name",
    Round(df.bytes/1024/1024,2) "Size (M)",
    Round(e.used_bytes/1024/1024,2) "Used (M)",
    Round(f.free_bytes/1024/1024,2) "Free (M)",
    Rpad(' '|| Rpad ('X',Round(e.used_bytes*10/df.bytes,0), 'X'),11,'-') "% Used"
    FROM DBA_DATA_FILES DF,
    (SELECT file_id,
    Sum(Decode(bytes,NULL,0,bytes)) used_bytes
    FROM dba_extents
    GROUP by file_id) E,
    (SELECT Max(bytes) free_bytes,
    file_id
    FROM dba_free_space
    GROUP BY file_id) f
    WHERE e.file_id (+) = df.file_id
    AND df.file_id = f.file_id (+)
    ORDER BY df.tablespace_name,
    df.file_name
    The output displays data for all the datafiles. But when i check the free space, its much lesser than actual free space. Is this has something to do with High Water Mark? All the data is in MB.
    Tablespace             Datafile                                        SIZE           Used        Free
    GNP2000     D:\DATABASE\GNP2005.ORA     6110.8     5646.6     8.95

    GNP2000     E:\ORANT\DATABASE\GNP2002.ORA     3046.88     2976.41     2.21
    Please explain why it displays different data and also how to find actual free space my database has?
    Thank You,

    This is because the script is WRONG.
    This is a lesson for you, if you are on 10g on higher, rather to trust the database control, which has already facilities for this, instead of someone developing a script. At least the Oracle provided material is correct.
    Admittedly, it does require you to read documentation and to find out things on your own.
    This part is WRONG
    SELECT Max(bytes) free_bytes,
    file_id
    FROM dba_free_space
    GROUP BY file_id)
    As an exercise, please try to find out for yourself, what is wrong.
    Please do not state you can not do this, this indicates you will never learn Oracle.

  • Help with Temp tablespace..

    Oracle 11g - 11.1.0.7, Redhat 5.3 64BIT w/4GB RAM
    ================================
    Hello All,
    I just inherited a DB from a person that left the company, and I've noticed something interesting in the TEMP tablespace. One file is located in /u02 and the additional file that was added latter - is staged at /u01. To make matters worse, temp01.dbf is a 968MB file where 744MB is being used, (no auto extend), temp02 looks like it was mistakenly created at 25GB (should have been 2GB) and it is using 3GB of space (with Auto extend on).
    I would like to first delete temp02 from the /u01 folder and recreate it in /u02 with its partner, but as a 2GB file only. What is the best way to proceed with this? Should I mount the DB, (not open) then drop and recreate it? Can it be done in an 'OPEN' state?
    Thanks.
    Ron
    Current Configuration:
    temp01.dbf /u02/oradata/CTS/ 968.36 744.00
    temp02.dbf /u01/oradata/CTS/ 25,792.00 3,009.00

    Ron,
    Create a new temp tablespace in desired location with desired size and set it as default temporary tablepsace and drop old temporary tablespace including temporary data files.
    You can use following and replace it wiht your path
    CREATE  TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP02 TEMPFILE
          '/u02/.../temp02.dbf' SIZE 100M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 128M
          MAXSIZE 2048M , '/u02/.../temp03.dbf' SIZE 128M AUTOEXTEND
          ON NEXT 128M MAXSIZE 2048M EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL;
    ALTER DATABASE DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP02;
    -- Drop old temporary tablespace and datafile
    DROP TABLESPACE temp INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES;Regards

  • Delete tablespace

    Hi,
    i have try this command :

    ORA-01116: error in opening database file 8

    It s normal i have delete the file (a big error i know but..) now is it possible to drop the tablespace anywhere?
    thanks for help
    null

    Remi, if tablespace dexem does NOT contain any rollback segments, try the folowing:
    ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE 8 OFFLINE DROP;
    DROP TABLESPACE dexem;
    If the tablespace does contain rollback segments, you will have to drop them first. If your database is down, you will have to modify your init.ora, and add the following parameter: offlinerollback_segments=(RBS1, RBS2, etc)
    After that you have to do the following:
    ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE 8 OFFLINE DROP;
    DROP ROLLBACK SEGMENT RBS1;
    DROP ROLLBACK SEGMENT RBS2;
    etc
    DROP TABLESPACE dexem;
    After that, you will have to recreate the rollback segments
    Good luck.

  • Tablespace design for joined tables

    Hello altogether,
    Right now I'm designing the database structure for an application requiring high performance on database side.
    While thinking about the tablespace structure I came to the following question:
    When I am sure that I will have a join on two (or more) tables very often, is it better to put them in one tablespace, or is it better to put them into different tablespaces?
    Thanks for your help!
    Daniel

    The tablespace that any particular object is in is irrelevant from a performance standpoint (assuming the tablespace parameters are identical, of course. An object in a dictionary managed tablespace may well have different performance characteristics than an object in a locally managed tablespace using ASSM). Now, if different tablespaces have data files on different physical devices, you may see some performance gains from putting different objects into different tablespaces simply because this would tend to distribute I/O over more physical devices. Of course, you could accomplish the same thing by creating data files on different devices in the same tablespace. And with newer disk subsystems, this sort of manual load balancing tends to be rather pointless.
    If you have locally attached storage and you want to distribute I/O across devices by putting objects in different tablespaces rather than assigning multiple data files to the same tablespace, it generally isn't going to matter much which objects are in which tablespace so long as the I/O is relatively evenly distributed (and assuming that there aren't any I/O patterns that need to be accounted for (i.e. if object A is used heavily during the day and object B is used heavily at night and those are the only two objects in the database, putting them in different tablespaces is pointless because you'd never be using the extra spindles simultaneously). You'd have just as much luck putting objects that start with the letters A-L in one tablespace and M-Z in another as putting tables and indexes in different tablespaces or putting related objects in the same tablespace or putting related objects in different tablespaces. So long as I/O gets distributed, it doesn't matter which objects are where.
    Personally, I'd never have separate tablespaces for performance. Much easier to have a single tablespace with multiple data files on different devices. Multiple tablespaces should exist for managability reasons, recoverability reasons, and because different objects require different tablespace settings.

  • Hello like to do online backup and clone

    dear all
    In our company we usually do cold backup's ... But i like to do online bkup by using alter tablespace beginbackup command... By doing this some of application got very slow... After taken backup we like to do clone with existing backup. But we not able to do so.. We got an error that System01.dbf file needs recovery... So we not able to recover it...
    So what are all the steps we wanna to do for hot backup and cloning?Is this possible clone with the help of rapidclone...
    we are not using RMAN so with the help of alter tablespace begin backup i wanna to do backup...

    Dear all
    We have around 450 GB disk..While issue command like "backup database " It stores to the default location under $ORACLR_HOME/dbs ... But we have around 360 GB of storage of datafiles.. So let me wanna to use test it also have the same space issue... So only we not use RMAN... I also tried to change the default location in to some other space ... It works ... But i dont know its possible to store some other machine via network... I.e i like to store datafiles into some other machine rather than same server....

  • Question on recovery

    Hello all,
    I think the following recovery should be possible but I'm not sure. Appreciate if you could shed some light.
    Scenario
    1) SCOTT user accidentally drops a table in SCOTT tablespace when the SCN was 100.
    2) FLASHBACK is not enabled for the database. No way to Flashback the database.
    3) RECYCLEBIN is set to OFF. No way to "Flashback table <tabname> to before drop".
    2) Other users are still using the database and the SCN has progressed to 150.
    Resolution to recover the tablespace to a point in time before the drop
    1) alter tablespace SCOTT offline;
    2) Restore datafiles belonging to SCOTT tablespace from the recent backup.
    3) Restore all required arch logs.
    4) recover tablespace SCOTT util scn=99
    5) alter tablespace SCOTT online;
    Is incomplete recovery possible at tablespace level within the live database? If yes, how can Oracle maintain SCOTT datafile at SCN 99 and all others at SCN 150?
    To resolve the above situation, I normally create an auxillary database by just restoring and recovering system,sysaux,undo and scott datafiles from the most recent backup and perform an incomplete PIT recovery of the auxillary database to a point in time before the actual drop. I would then export and import the table from the auxillary database to the live database.
    Restoring and recovering an auxillary database is a time consuming process so I was wondering if I could just restore and recover the affected tablespace in the live database itself.
    Thanks for your time.

    Hi Aman,
    Thanks for your reply and time given to my doubt. Actually my doubt has raised due to above posted blog entry; in which the writer has not mentioned anything about another db. He simply has written:
    "Assuming we have the latest backup, just executing the following statement would do everything needed to get the entire *tablespace* to a point-in-time in the past. Believe me, you don't have to do anything other than just this statement!"
    So, here my doubt is how he is able to perform RMAN TSPITR without other db, with he help of recover tablespace ... auxiliary destination ...
    I mean, even Hemant sir has said for Incomplete recovery; we need other db... So it caused me doubt please.
    Sorry sir, if i am missing/asking something irrlavent to the OP's question.
    Regards

  • Deployment of Analytic Workspace

    Hi,
    I have a query regarding the deployment of an AW in various environments like dev, test and live.
    When we first create the AW in dev environment, we specify an AW name and the tablespace to be allocated for that particular AW. For deploying the AW in different environment, we use the XML template that is exported from the AW using 'Export Analytic Workspace to Template' option. But while creating the AW from template, there is no option to specify the tablespace for the new environment.
    Could anyone please help me how tablespace can be specified while deploying AW in other environments.
    Thanking in advance,
    Mainak

    This is a bit of a hack, but it will work
    Towards the end of the XML template file you should see an entry something like this.
    <AW
      Name="MY_AW"
      Version="11.2">
    </AW>The name of the AW will obviously be different, and the version may be different as well. It doesn't matter because you will just delete the section from the XML document.
    Now in AWM you first create an empty AW using the simple "Create Analytical Workspace..." option. This will allow you to specify a tablespace. Once you have done this you select "Create Analytical Workspace From Template..." and import your objects into the AW you just created. Note that you must create an AW with the same name as the original as it is embedded into the XML for the cubes and dimensions.
    The more sophisticated version of this is to delete the AW section above and then add a header to the XML template
    <!DOCTYPE Metadata [
      <!ENTITY % BIND_VALUES PUBLIC "OLAP BIND VALUES" "OLAP METADATA">
      %BIND_VALUES;
      ]>Finally you replace all occurrences of your AW name with the string
    &AW_NAME;For example, instead of
    <AWPrimaryDimensionOrganization
      MVOption="NONE"
      HierarchyConsistencyRule="STAR_CONSISTENT"
      AddUniqueKeyPrefix="False"
      AW="MY_AW">you would have
    <AWPrimaryDimensionOrganization
      MVOption="NONE"
      HierarchyConsistencyRule="STAR_CONSISTENT"
      AddUniqueKeyPrefix="False"
      AW="&AW_NAME;">You can see this type of XML if you export a single cube or dimension to a template. I don't know why AWM doesn't let you do the same thing for the whole AW.
