How to reclaim the space used for LOBSEGMENT, which is growing fast

Hi,
DB version 10.2.0.2
OS RHEL v4
Envi RAC on ASM
On the production, in one of the schemas (PR_AA) on the tablespace PR_AA, i have
1) a table (Table1) which has 3 columns of CLOB datatype. Current size of this table is 65 GB.
2) Two LOBSEGMENTS 85GB + 25GB =110GB
3) about 10 Indexes of Table1 are of 15 to 17 GB
Table1 is being purged on a daily basis, but still the tablespace is growing like anything ( now the over all size of the tablespace is itself 190GB).
What i need is,
Q1 . Ways to reclaim the purged space from the table1.
Q2. How to shrink the table/ tablespace? Is it possible to do it online without impacting the users/business?
Q3. How to shrink/maintain LOBSEGMENTS space, that is , how to control the size or reclaim the space from LOBSEGMENT after the daily purge on the Table1?
Quick help is much appreciated and thank you in advance.
Regards

Check the below metalink note and you should be able to resolve all issue (Check atucal size, Calculate space used,Move LOBDATA..etc)

  • How to reclaim the space after delete

    Hi All,
    Today we deleted large number of rows from one table, but we didn't get free space after that. So for testing purpose, I have created one test tablespace with 5mb size .Created a table and inserted n number of rows in that table and made the tablespace full.I checked in dba_segments(5mb) and dba_free_space tables.It shows perfectly.After that I deleted all the records and try to create a simple table,but it returns (ORA-01658: unable to create INITIAL extent for segment).I read some time back in tom's forum that delete willn't reclaim the space ,instead it will go to freelist of table..Is there any way to reclaim the space?(after delete)
    and also I used to see the tablesize by using dba_segments table.but now it shows 5mb of size for the empty table.Is there any query to get the exact table size?Please help me to understand the concept.
    Thanks,Jvel

    Thanks,JvelDELETE simply deletes the specified rows. The blocks/extetents that were allocated to hold those rows remain allocated. The theory is that if the table once needed sufficient blocks/extents to hold 'x' rows, it may need so again at some time in the future. Allocating and de-allocating extents is a pretty expensive operation, so oracle is not going to waste time and resources constantly doing that just because you delete rows, which is a perfectly normal DML operation. Unless you don't expect that table to grow again, I'd not waste my time trying to reclaim the space.

  • How to change the language used for Aperture?

    I'm new to Aperture, I'm a Photoshop Elements 6.0 user, however I found that Aperture has some things that I like better than Photoshop.
    Now I downloaded the test version in order to check if its worth it, therefore I downloaded from the Apple homepage in the US, becuase I want to have it in English, I even select English to read the terms of use, but at the end the program is installed in German, languaege in wich I have my iMac.
    Do you know How could I do it in order to change the language and been able to use Aperture in English?

    Thank you so much, like that will make my life so easy and I'll be able to understand Aperture, due to the translation of the words is not always the same sometimes another word is used and then you just need to search for it.

  • Late 2011 MacBook Pro - how much hard drive space used for OS, iLife, system files?

    Dear Community,
    I've just taken delivery of a used MacBook Pro.  It's pristine, hardly used.
    It has a 750Gb hard drive with 500Gb free.  Does this sound about right or could there be hidden files lurking unseen?  The previous user had installed Microsoft Windows but I can't find any sign of a partition for that and the previous owner said he'd erased everything except Lion, iLife and system files, etc.
    I looked in System Info which it isn't showing a large partition.  I also looked in Disk Utiliy under Partition which seems to show un "current" a single drive with no partitions and around 200Gb used.  It just seems a lot for the basic files.
    I have another 100Gb to add to that when I migrate my PowerBook over in the next few days.  That's okay while I have the current drive but I've purchased a 500Gb Crucial SSD drive to replace it so that will leave 200Gb free.
    I know I can remove the super drive and put my 750Gb drive in its place but I need super drive for viewing DVDs.
    I would grateful for any feedback.

    Thanks everyone for your help with this.
    After hours of trying to figure this out I located around 150Gb in total but found there was no way of removing references to the original owner whose "Home" file in Finder remained prominent.
    So I elected to erase the drive and reinstall Lion using Disk Utility.  It took two hours or so to download and I took the precaution of plugging directly into Ethernet rather than my Airport.
    When the download was complete I was able to input fresh details so all trace of the original owner has been removed.
    Once that was done I upgraded to Lion 10.7.5 and was able to download Garage Band, iMovie and iPhoto for free from the App Store.
    Anybody contemplating doing the same should check that their machine is elligible before erasing as Apple does an auto check before downloading.
    Here's the state of the hard drive now:
    Thanks again and what a great resource the community forum's are:-)

  • TS1702 how can I remove large number of photos on my iPhone 4s from iTunes using a PC - Lenovo Think Pad - so that I can reduce the space used on the phone by 50%?

    how can I remove large number of photos on my iPhone 4s from iTunes using a PC - Lenovo Think Pad - so that I can reduce the space used on the phone by 50%?

    You don't need iTunes for that. Simply connect the iPhone to the PC where it will be recognized as a camera. You can then select the photos you wish to transfer, transfer them, and delete them.

    I don't know of there is anyone than can fix this age old Apple problem.   Does anyone know how to retrieve apps under an old Apple ID when the email used for that account no longer exists & I can't remember the password? After speaking with Apple Acct. Security, I got the security Q right but my birthday was wrong! They wanted the serial number from my phone that was 3 iPhones ago! Seriously??!!
    Any updated way to work around this? No Apple people can correct it.
    Thanks,

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

  • How to find out what are the interfaces used for Job and Job Codes

    Hi,
    Here is an idea for your request.
    Basically you can create a simple query on multiprovider 0TCT_MC01.
    Filter: you can use a variable for restriction of time ( calday, or calmonth) since you should be interested for a time period.
    Choose following characters into your objects:
    InfoProvider ( 0TCTIFPROV )  - you can create a variable for choosing infoprovider before query runs.
    *Tp.[Type of BI Application Object] 0TCTBISOTYP  = filter this with 'QUERY' or whatever your need is.
    *BI Application Object 0TCTBISBOBJ,  ( this will give you the name of the queries)
    In key figures choose,  Count for BI Appl. (0TCTWTCOUNT).
    (number for query run)
    Create a condition , for top 20.
    Hope this helps.

    Benje001,
    Right-click on the CWAI control on your form. Choose Properties. The first tab is the Channels tab. After you choose your device from the drop down box on the right, you can type in the Channels box which channel you want to use.
    If you want to see a CWAI control that is already configured, all of the shipping examples will have this already done.
    Also, if you have questions about any item on the CWAI (or any other NI ActiveX control) you can click the ? icon in the right corner of the properties page and then click on the item in the dialog that you need help with. This "What's this" help will describe that particular control on the dialog.
    Hope that helps!

  • How to get the owner name for the file in ftp using abap ?

    Hi folks ,
    How to get the owner name for the file in ftp using abap ? please help me very ugernt . I tried with all standard FTP commands
    but doest work out me . Helping in this regard highly appreciated ...
    Thanks and regards,
    Swarupa Vanarchi

    Hi
    dont you  have used the os user while calling the FTP_CONNECT FM?
    Hope you are not talking about the user executing the FTP program.
    Else If you are talking about the FTP file creator then its not related to abap as you can handle it by maintaining the user in file name itself.
    May be i am going too far with if and elses here as your question possesses no  clarity.
    Plz elaborate your requirement  before anybody can help.

    Hi Karol,
    by navigating to:
    Content Administration -> Collaboration Content -> (Room Administration -> Related Topics) -> Configure Backend Properties for Rooms
    you can change the Webprotocol to http:// and set server port to 50000 (default port).
    To see the SSL Port you can go in the Visual Administrator to Services -> "HTTP Provider Services".

  • My requirement is to update 3 valuesets daily based on data coming to my staging table. What is the API used for this and how to map any API to our staging table? I am totally new to oracle and apps. Please help. Thanks!

    My requirement is to update 3 valuesets daily based on data coming to my staging table. What is the API used for this and how to map any API to our staging table? I am totally new to oracle and apps. Please help. Thanks!

    Hi,
    You could use FND_FLEX_LOADER_APIS.UP_VALUE_SET_VALUE to upload them from staging table (I suppose you mean value set values...).
    You can find a sample scripts if you google around.
    What do you mean "how to map any API to our staging table" ?
    You should do at least the following mapping (which column(s) in the staging table will provide these information):
    - the 3 value sets name which you're going to update/upload (I suppose these are existing value sets or which have been already created)
    - the value set values and  description
    Try to start with something and if there is any issues the community could then help... but for the time being with the description of the problem you have provided, that's the best I can do...
