Increase free space in data files

Hello All,
We are running netweaver 04s on sql server. In our EPR landscape, we are having message no free space in file in db02 transaction. It reports error when we execute DB02 and does not allows or shows us the DBCC check options. Strangely, this message appears even if the auto grow option in data files is on.
Could you please let me know what would be the impact if I increase the datafiles initial size?
Thanks,
Gaurav

Hello Jeff,
Thanks for the response!
The odd thing out is that, we do have autogrowth on, and I am sure the data file size is getting increased on all the datafiles, otherwise the database would have struck up but the information that we get on DB02 transaction is wrong or the correct information is not bieng reflected.
Also, I am not able to run the DBCC checks via dbacockpit!
Please share your thoughts!
Thanks,
Gaurav

Claiming of free space in data files

I have a problem for claiming the free space in few data files .There is the data in the files at fragmented places i.e. the free space is below the high water mark.DB is production db and Export/Import is not possible due to time consideration. How to get back that space. Please reply soon.....

Dolly, the term HWM in Oracle is normally only used to describe the last used block in a table allocation. There is no way to reclaim unused blocks below the HWM in a table without reorganizing the table though Oracle will resuse the space for new rows if the pct_used threshold allows (or ASSM) allows it do so.
You can sometimes release free (unused) blocks above the HWM of a table using the alter table shrink option.
You can perform a similar function on extendable datafiles between the last allocated object extent and the end of file.
As Justin said, you need to explain your situation better.

Partition drop not increasing free space in dba_free_spaces

I am Using Oracle 11.2.0.3.
I had a script that droped partitions for a table which should have dropped nearly 30 gb of data. We have data and index tablespace.
Query of dba_free_space showed no change on data tablespace. However, index tablespace showed increase in free space.
select sum(bytes / (1024 * 1024 * 1024)) "Size (GB)" from dba_free_space where tablespace_name ='&tbs_name'I am using following command to drop partition
ALTER TABLE table_name
DROP PARTITION "partition_name"
UPDATE GLOBAL INDEXES;What should be done to increase free space shown for tablespace after partition drop ?
Thanks for the time.

Incorrect - the DROP STORAGE option applies to TRUNCATE PARTITION not to DROP PARTITION as the doc explains. A simple test will confirm that.
alter table emp_part_test drop partition sys_p341 drop storage

Increasing free space on drive C

My computer was really low on free space on drive C. It seemed as if Adobe programs were eating up space on drive C. I managed to increase the free disk space from 2.7 GB to 8 GB.
(Try at your own risk...)
Windows XP
1. Delete picture folders from C:\Documents and Settings\Main Administrator\Application Data\Adobe\Bridge CS4\Cache
Bridge apperantly saves some files automatically. I had some old photos there that I'd already backed up.
2. Delete C:\Documents and Settings\(user name)\Application Data\Adobe\CameraRaw\Cache
3. In premiere pro cs4: Edit>Preferences>Media change the location of Media Cache Files and Media Cache Database from drive c to any other drive.

You are playing with fire!
The proper way to control and purge these caches can be found as follows in Bridge:
Edit=>Preferences=>Cache
provides facilties to set the location of the Bridge cache, control its maximum size, to compact the cache, and to purge the Bridge cache.
Edit=>Camera Raw=>Camera Raw Cache
provides facilities to set the location of the Camera Raw cache, control its maximum size, and to purge the Camera Raw cache.
Don't go willy-nilly deleting files!

Disk Utility - Erase Free Space - Creating Temporary File Freeze

I used "Erase Free Space" with Disk Utility after trashing several files I no longer wanted on the hard drive or recovered. I used "Zero Out Deleted Files" option. It took over 12 hours before an error message appeared "Your start up disk is almost full. You need to make more space available on your start up disk by deleting files." I thought that was what I was doing. Disk Utility continued but got stuck on "Creating Temporary File." I force quit Disk Utility after several more hours. I had to manually shut down the computer because the restart command wouldn't work. It rebooted and appears to be OK. Evidently, this temporary file consumes significant amounts of disk space. This is an older iMac with 10.4.11 (18 GHz PowerPC G5) - I know, pretty old but I still have OS 9 on it and several files I need to extract before I trash it.
1. Should I do nothing? The iMac seems to be working fine.
2. How do I know if this Temporary File exists and consuming space? Spotlight doesn't find it. Where is it?
3. Is my start up disk in fact almost full? How would I know that?
Thanks!

Then I would not do any secure erasing. It's exceptionally time consuming and unnecessary. Before you take it in for recycling boot it from your OS X installer DVD. Do this:
Drive Partition and Format
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
A one-pass Zero Data option is all that is required to prevent access to your erased files.

Mobile Time Machine apparently increases free space

After setting up Fusion Drive and restored OS and files, my MBP had 200GB of free space.
Few days later, 230GB of free space in a Finder window.
A week later, 300GB of free space, despite I did not delete fles that much.
I checked "About This Mac">"Storage" for a week, and found that "Other" was decreasing (I did not delete much, again), and "Backups" was increasing.
It is as if files which must be categoraized "other" are categoraized "Backups", and since the amount of "Backups" is not counted in Finder, apparently I had more and more free space.
Have anyone experienced such strange case? I disabled mobile time Machine, fearing "other" files would be deleted as "backups" files would be.

Actually, I can shorten this down to just:
Mount TimeMachineBackup disk, it reports ~95GB free.
Repair it, it reports 800+GB free
Unmount it
Remount it, it again reports ~95GB free.
Rinse. Repeat.

Resetting to increase free space

My monitor shows my ram free space diminishing to nothing after a few hours. I then restartt to restore it back to over 6 gigs (I have 8 gigs of ram). I had my computer tested at the apple store and they said everything was OK. It seems strange that I have to restart my computer at least daily to free up ram space. Is there something I am doing wrong or should be doing? I am using a MacBook Pro running Leopard 10.7.4. I use iPhoto, iMovie, iToons, Safari and and Office.

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive may be failing.
If you have more than ten or so files or folders on your Desktop, move them, temporarily at least, somewhere else in your home folder.
If iCloud is enabled, disable it.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, and monitor, if applicable. Launch the usual set of applications you use when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Step 2
You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out before posting.

D3lphin / konqueror - too much free space between single files

Hi there,
I'm using Kdemod 3.5.9. The problem I experience is, that both d3lphin and konqueror create "gaps" between files. Its hard to explain, so I post a picture.
The picture shows my wallpaper collection - but the problem is not bound to images. It does also occur with dirs, videos, sound-files...
By changing the font and grid-size I was able to change the general free space between files, but the "extra space" between some files remains.
Any Idea?
Greetings, yodo

@funkyou At first thanks for your work because after recognizing that you have things as at example kdmtheme included i give kdemod a try and it works nice. Instead of your theme looks very cool i stay as before with qtcurve ... i hope this is not a problem for you. [If you want you can do a +1kdemod/-1kde in your survey ]
funkyou wrote:It works fine for me, but i belive that this has something to do with DPI settings in Xorg...
I have exact the same settings as you with the only exception that Sub-Pixel-Hinting is on but i have the same effect as yodo. I fear that if dpi (or/and fonts) could be a problem in this case than the content of "/etc/fonts/conf.avail" could be important too. But i don't realy think that this is the problem because the icons on the desktop don't have this problem.
My workaround is stepping to the Tree View (i hope this is the correct translation of "Mehrspaltige Ansicht") and i forgot it because i like this more and more.
@yodo Very nice wallpapers and thanks for animating me to search InterfaceLIFT.

Removing free space in DMG file

I have a 7GB .dmg file that I'm trying to burn to a DL DVD. When mounted (and in Disk Utility), the file shows as having 1.2GB of free space. If I try to burn it in Toast 10 or Disk Utility, I get an error saying that my blank DL DVD can't fit the 8.2GB file, even though it only contains 7GB of actual files. How can I "delete" the free space in this .dmg file so that it will fit on a dual-layer DVD?

What's interesting is that a blank DL DVD has a capacity of 8.5 GB.

Need program to safely scrub free space and deleted files and parts of file

In PC world they have CCleaner and R-Wipe & Clean and a half-dozen other well-regarded programs that clean up the junk off your drive, sanitizing it while not touching the data still in use. Are there such programs with good reputations in the Mac world? What be they?

Thanks, I have used that. I'm not so sure it is as thorough as the programs I mentioned for the PC, which take out fragments of sectors, various histories, cookies, bits of remaindered programs, etc. And they are much quicker, seems to me, than the Erase Free Space in Disk Utilities to boot (even the straight write zeros is slow in DU).
So I was looking for some free or commercial products that offered a range of methods and good speed, as well as a broad range of "intelligent" pruning.

Disk Utility - Erase Free Space - Creating Temporary File Freezes

BDAqua: I tried responding to your reply to my original posting but I get an error message that I was not authorized to reply. I logged out. I can't find the original posting in my Activity so I approached from the link in my e-mail saying you had replied. Now it says the area is restricted. What's up with that?

Here's what I tried to say in my response that I wasn't authorize to make:
I can't seem to reply to your response BD . . . says I'm not authorize . . . so I'll try to reply to my original post.
Thanks BD for your reply. Here's the info on the drive: 1.3 TB capacity with 1,017 GB available. Eventually I will recycle the computer at Best Buy who guarantees the hard drive will be erased. I just want to get all my files off first. I'll just do another Erase Free Space and see, as you suggest, if there are any files to be zeroed out. Maybe there aren't any. I've extracted most of what I want but am debating how to move the entire iPhoto library to an external drive so I can access it from my Mavericks machine. Can I just drag and drop the iPhoto Library, or do I need to export it somehow?
