Installing 9.2.0.1 database filled up hard drive

Hi Everyone,
I just installed Oracle 9i Rel 2: 9.2.0.1 and now it is taking up all of the space on my hard drive. I installed it on Windows XP Professional. My CPU is 2.8 GHz; Ram is: 1.00 GB. Here's what I have after the installation:
Before Installation: 210 GB free space
After Installation: 26.7 GB free space
My machine is crawling since the Oracle installation. I can barely complete any tasks. Something is definitely wrong because Oracle should not have taken up this much space. Could someone PLEASE help me figure this out. What could be eating up space like this? I need this installation for my class.
Thanks
Hard Disk: 210 GB free space
Here's what I have after the Oracle installation:
Hard Disk: 26.7 GB free space

I ran the following script:
select sum(bytes) from dba_data_files
It returned this number: 950927360
What does this mean? Thanks for all your help. I can't believe that my hard disk only has 26.7 GB free space when it had 210 GB free space before the Oracle installation. This is horrible! Any help you all can provide will be greatly appreciated.

  • Hello, I have a G5 PPC. I want to install a copy of Entourage on the second hard drive. Can I do that or will it create problems for the processor?

    Hi everyone
    I had a very old intel iMac from late 2006 which was dying now dead. I just managed to copy the Entourage folder onto an external hard drive before the iMac gave up the ghost. But I could not open the Entourage copy on the G5 PPC. each time i tried to do so the PPC copy of Entourage would open instead.I have emails on the PPC copy and do not want to lose them. I was wondering if it would be possible to install another copy of Entourage on the second hard drive? I was hoping that by doing that I could access the information from the iMac which has been copied to an external hard drive.
    Any help would be very very welcome.

    I don't think MS lets you install Entourage outside of an active system folder. However, you can install a fresh copy of Entourage on the G5's hard drive (if you have Office 2008 or lower), then use Entrouge's Import command to move the data files from the old hard drive.
    We're done this several times as we've upgraded either computers or Entourage.
    However, I think that, before you act, you should also ask in Microsoft's user forums here:
    Office for Mac forums
    They are excellent and often an employee of their Macintosh unit will assist in answering.

  • Apple:  Give me a way to stop TV downloads on iTunes, or I stop buying shows on my AppleTV.  That simple.   I'm tired of automatic downloads filling my hard drive every time I open iTunes on my laptop.

    I'm tired of automatic downloads filling my hard drive every time I open iTunes on my laptop.  Tonight I had to go to iTunes to verify my payment info - even though I'd already done that two days ago - and before I can even access the iTunes Store, iTunes starts downloading 44 TV shows that I've purchased over the last few months on my AppleTV; before I could completely stop it, it had entirely filled up my hard drive - 180 GB.  There's NO reason there isn't a way to stop auto-downloads of TV shows - every other type of media has the ability to stop auto-downloads, and given that I have an AppleTV (for now!), why in pasta's name would I want to load them onto my laptop?!

  • Installing windows xp pro on a separate internal hard drive in ntfs

    Does anyone here know how to install windows xp professional on a separate internal hard drive in NTFS with bootcamp. In the bootcamp manual it says I can ,but when I reach the list of partitions in xp setup, C: Partition3<BOOTCAMP> {FAT32} Is not on the list. I called support and they told me Apple doesnt support BOOTCAMP on a separate drive and to check the forum though the manual says It can be done.

    Rather easy enough to do. People install XP and Vista all the time on 2, 3rd or 4th drive in Mac Pro. I know Vista 64-bit on Mac Pro has best support for addressing RAM and drivers.

    Yes. Find the LR catalog file by looking in Edit/Catalog Settings/General. Close LR and navigate to that spot. The catalog file is the one that ends in .lrcat - move it to wherever you want. Next to the .lrcat file is a subfolder called Previews.lrdata. You can move that over as well, but if you don't LR will generate new previews. Double-click on the .lrcat file in its new home and LR will open with that catalog. Set Preferences to When Starting Up Use Most Recent Catalog.

  • If I completely fill my hard drive 500Gb how time machine will keep working having 1Tb of total space, I mean I have to delete mu hard drive but how I keep my previous information on time machine and keep using to with new information?

    If I completely fill my hard drive 500Gb how time machine will keep working having 1Tb of total space [externak hard drive], I mean I have to delete my hard drive but how I keep my previous information on time machine and keep using it with new information?

    Time Machine does not provide archival storage.
    If you delete a file from your disk it will eventually be deleted from your TM backup without any notice to you.
    You need a second external disk to use for archival storage.
    You also need a third disk for backups of the second disk.

    I just purchased the Mac Mini Server with the intention of replacing Lion Server with Lion for the first hard drive while installing Windows 7 thru Bootcamp on the second hard drive. Is it possible for me to do this? Thanks.

    I would use Parallels or VMWare and use the second drive to hold the virtual machine. That way the VM only uses the space that it needs and you can still use the remainder of the drive for other things, not to mention that you would not need to reboot to run windows.
    Also Time Machine does not back up a boot camp partition.

  • Installing OS X 10.5 on a blank Hard Drive

    Is it possible to install mac OS 10.5 on a blank hard drive?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Yes it is. Just insert your 10.5.x install disc and after you select your language select Disk Utility from the menu. Then choose your HDD and click the "Partition" >> "Options" tab then create a single partition as GUID.
    Then return to install and install 10.5.

  • Down loaded Mavericks, will not install on my computer because it says "this hard drive is used for time machine back up".

    Down loaded mavericks, it will not install on my computer because it says" this hard drive is used for time machine back up". So I used my old computer  hard drive for back up and reloaded the program but it still says the first hard drive is being used.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Make sure you have selected your MacBook Pro's hard drive as the destination to install Mavericks. If so, you have the "Backups.backupdb" folder in the root level of your hard drive.
    That's the folder used by Time Machine to store backups of your files, and the Mavericks installer understands that your internal hard disk is the Time Machine drive.
    To fix this, open a Finder window, select the Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type:
    Then, delete "Backups.backupdb", empty the Trash and run the Mavericks installer. Finally, install OS X Mavericks
