How to reduce the database size based on MS SQL/Oracle?
Hi,
I had deleted severy clients via SCC5, but the database size is more and more bigger. Do you know how to reduce the database size.
my platform is: NT, MS SQL 2005
NT, Oracle 10.2

Simon Shen
Hi Simon,
In the case of SQL you need to check how many space free you have in your datafiles and the based on that you need to Shrink them using DBCC SHRINKFILE command.
Find a couple of reference docs here,
http://www.intermedia.net/support/kb/default.asp?id=996
http://doc.ddart.net/mssql/sql70/dbcc_21.htm
Also i'm pretty sure that if your check the properties of the datafiles in MSSQL Enterprise Manager you get a "Shrink" option.

How to reduce the database size after deleting huge amount of rows?
Hi,
I have a large database. I removed almost half of the data/rows. Now i need to reduce the size of the database file as I need more disk space for the database file.
What should I do in details please.
Thanks.Hi,

Deleting large data would have ultimately put ghost cleanup into action. You would not be able to free space using shrink operation untill it completes. So wait for time and then start shrinking. You should note that shrinking would cause fragmentation and
you would have to rebuild indexes after shrinking is completed

Best Trategy to reduce the Database Size
Hi Everyone,
In our Client's Landscape SAP systems have been upgraded to newer versions whereas our client want
one copy of older Production systems (one copy to retain)
1) SAP R/3 4.6 C system (database size of this system is approx 2TB)
2) SAP BW 3.0 (database size of this system is approx 2TB)
Now CLient wants us to reduce the database size via re-organization because Archiving of IDOCs & Links we have already done
Client has recommended for :
1) Oracle Export/Import: Only Oracle DBA can do (ignore this one)
2) Database Reorganization : We have tried Reoragnization via BRtools but found very tedious 9 (ignore this one)
3) SAP Export/Import : Via this way we want to reduce the database size
Can anybody Tell us How much Free space do we require in order at OS level in order to store the Database Export
of Two Databases of size around 4TB & what would be the best strategy of reducing the Dabase size.
Via SAP Export/Import how much approx how much database size will be reduced
Thanks & Regards

The only realistic way to know is to do a system copy of the production system on a testbed system and to test the Database Export.
If you really want to decrease the database size you will have to archive a lot more than the IDOC archiving object.

How to increase the database size
Hi All ,
Our Client is going to increase their customers from 3.5 million to 5 millions
(12 millions in future ) and there is no increase in the existing licenses..
At present we have very less space in Data base server. We are Going Live at the End of the Month.
How to increase the database size to meet the Client requirements.
we have to increase the No of Processerors etc...
Below are the details of Servers:
System Model: IBM,7040-681
Machine Serial Number: 830D5BF
Processor Type: PowerPC_POWER4
Number Of Processors: 2
Processor Clock Speed: 1904 MHz
CPU Type: 64-bit
Kernel Type: 64-bit
LPAR Info: 4 bgl-svr-biap
Memory Size: 4096 MB
Good Memory Size: 4096 MB
Note : Server is IBM P690.
1) System Lansdcape --> Two System Landsacpe ( Dev to Prod )
2) BW Version --> 3.5
3) SAP Basis --- > 6.4
4) No of Application servers currently having --> Only One Server
Can any body suggest me how to solve this.....
Thanks in Advance..
Kasi ChukkaHi Kasi,
Your question is not very clear, from the looks of it, the load on your client's system will be doubling soon.
You need to look at the system stats on how the system is handling the current load, use transactions ST06, ST04 and ST02 to check if the DB hit ratios are as expected, the cpu idle time, the busy periods. Identify if there is large amounts of paging on the server(candidate for increase in real memory).
On AIX level, you will need to look at CPU / Memory usage.
On SAP Application server, you need to look at SAP Buffers.
On Oracle end, look at SGA stats, if it need to increase, the data growth that is current and estimated growth (DB02).
You will not get an exact answer to it, you will need to analyze the existing load and then estimate (guess). The hardware upgrade will also depend on what the client is willing to spend, its always a good practise to add 20% to what you have estimated as these figures are never accurate.
All the best.
Cheers,

can one tell how to find the database size?
Depends what you mean by database size and how you want the output to look?
Are you referring to the number of rows across all tables of a schema? The number of bytes used by the rows? The number of bytes used by the tablespaces? The number of bytes used by the datafiles? etc. etc. etc. So many options.
Be more clear in your requirements please. -

How to determine the database size corresponding to the nber records in DSO
Hi Colleagues,
I would like to determine the database size corresponding to my new BI project.
I know the number of records uploaded in the DSO from the source system for the intialization phase.
How can I deduct the database size / disk size corresponding to the number of record uploaded ?
Thanks,Hi Ram,
I am with SAP BI Release SAPKW70019
I do not have the option Single Table analysis -
I have in DB02 or ST04 the following options.
*- Space*
-- space overview
->database
--overview
->users
--overview
--detailed analysis
-> tablespaces
--overview
--detailed analysis
-> segments
--overview
--Detailed analysis
--Detailed Analysis Aggregated
-> Additional Functions
--Collector Logs
--BW Analysis
Where should I go through ?

Hai Friends,
I have created a Z Table with 100 fields. i want to check the database size after uploading the data. How can i do this?. That is, after uploading the first entry i want to know the size and again i want to upload 5 more entries and to check the growth.
Where can i see this?. i have checked in DB02 but even after data upload i didnt see the size. kindly explain me the process.
Thanks..................Hi,
In the Go to Menu then Check the Number of entries to track your current set of entries.
For DB Size check Technical Settings . Tab Logical Settings parameters the Data class and Size category can give you how much data the table can hold.
Thanks,

How to reduce the font size of the title of grid ALV without using OOPS
Hello
i have a title which i have displayed in a grid layout using this code
DATA: GRID_TITLE TYPE LVC_TITLE.
GRID_TITLE = 'FACTORY OVERHEAD '
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
EXPORTING
I_GRID_TITLE = GRID_TITLE.
Now i would like to reduce the font size of the text which is displayed "'FACTORY OVERHEAD '.
how do i do that,i am new to abap.
ThanksHi,
Set the font size to your requirement
Go this below code.
CLASS ZCL_GUI_ALV_GRID DEFINITION INHERITING FROM CL_GUI_ALV_GRID.
PUBLIC SECTION.
METHODS TITLE_SIZE.
PRIVATE SECTION.
ENDCLASS.
Then use the above method in the Implementation part as .
CLASS ZCL_GUI_ALV_GRID IMPLEMENTATION.
METHOD TITLE_size.
ME->SET_TITLE_SIZE( EXPORTING SIZE = 1
EXCEPTIONS ERROR = 1 ).
ENDMETHOD.
ENDCLASS.
Now when your reference variable should be
Data :GRID type ref to ZCL_GUI_ALV_GRID.
and Create the Object as
CREATE OBJECT GRID
EXPORTING I_PARENT = G_CUSTOM_CONTAINER1.
Before Calling Set_table_for_ first_display, Call the created method
CALL METHOD GRID->TITLE_SIZE. -
Rebuild Database did not reduce the database size
I just completed a rebuild database. The rebuild completed much quicker than anticipated and in the end the did not reduce in size.
This is my first rebuild and since original installation I have deleted a number of masters. From my understanding thumbnails and previews are not deleted when the master is deleted. In order to delete the thumbnails and previews the db must be rebuilt. Is this correct?
The db is over 31.1gb. The rebuild took approx 10 minutes and when completed the db size was still 31.1gb. There was a message during the rebuild that read "Recovering projects". I was expecting to see stats showing previews and thumbnails being generated in the activity window but don't see it. Has the db been rebuilt?
Thanks for any assistance.Rebuilding the database is for disaster-recovery, not file maintenance. I certainly wouldn't do it unless something was fundamentally broken and the application didn't run.
"rebuilding" the database seems to do the following:
(1) remove the database file completely (not even to the trash, it destroys the database utterly)
(2) run through the plist files and reconstruct a brand-new database from them all
I checked this (on an empty library) using hard-links from the commandline, and step (1) above scared me sufficiently that I'd only rebuild the database as an absolute last resort.
Now, 31GB seems a lot for a database that only took 10 minutes to rebuild - are you sure you're not telling us the size of the library (to find the database size, right-click on the library and select view-package-contents, then open the 'Aperture.aplib' folder and find the size of the 'Library.apdb' file. That's the file you're changing when you 'rebuild database'.)
If you're telling us the size of the entire aperture library instead, then that size will be completely dominated by the master RAW files you've imported. I'd guess your library will be less than 10MB.
My understanding is that previews are deleted (since they're stored as separate files alongside the master image, if you look in the folder hierarchy), but thumbnails aren't. The thumbnails are aggregated together into one-file-per-project (presumably for speed of access), and I'd guess the space is reclaimed for future use, but the file doesn't get any smaller. That's a classic trade-off for speed-of-access, and users like us are normally very keen on things being fast

How to get the database size of several system
Hi
We've got a lot of database system on our landscape. I want to make a simple report to get the size the all our database on a weekly base.
I try to get a RZ20 value on it without succes.
Do you know a sql request that i could launch on all my database to get this information ? i did'nt find any V$^view with this information.
thanks for your help
florent"The database size" can be
- the total size
- the filled size
- the filled size without undo/temp
You can use DBACOCKPIT to centrally manage multiple instance and check the sizes.

How do I reduce the database size that teststand creates
Currently the test report access database file is growing like crazy. Its now around 500mb. I forcast in a month or two is will be 1 Gig. Currently things are stored in verbose (complete mode). What does one need to do to make it store in terse mode. I took over the project from someone else and have not had Test Stand training.
ThanksYou can filter the results of a TestStand execution. This would minimize what is logged to the database.
(1) From the Sequence Editor goto Configure -> Database Options.
(2) Here you can set a Result Filtering Expression. For instance, if you only to record the steps that failed select "Ignore Passed/Done/Skipped"
The other option is to change the Schema that logs the execution to a database. The Schema represents a mapping of data from TestStand to the tables and records of a database. You can create a custom Schema or modify an existing Schema. For more information, please take a look at Chapter 6 of the TestStand Reference Manual.
