Maxextent of PSAPTEMP = 0  : normal ?

Hello,
SAP release ; ECC6
Oracle release : Oracle 10.2
Unix : Solaris 10
We had the following error this morning while trying to reorganize an index :
<b>ORA-01652: unable to extend temp segment by 128 in tablespace PSAPTEMP</b>
I was about to add new datafile to the tableblace PSAPTEMP but I noticed strange parameters related to this tablespace :
Tablespace              Init ext.(Kb)   Next ext.(Kb)   Min ext.     Max ext.     Pct-Inc.

Tablespace Size (kb)  Free (kb)  Used (%)Tab/ind Extents
PSAPTEMP 2.324.480   2.324.480     0     0    0
The Tablespace is empty.
The Maxextent of tablespace PSAPTEMP is null, in all our ECC6 environnements,
and has never been modified. I wanted to change it to "unlimited", I've searched in BRGUI, but I couln't find where i can do that. I presume it can be done using an alter command ?
So my questions are :
1/ Is it a "normal" setting in Oracle 10.2 to have the maxextent of PSAPTEMP = 0
2/ If not, how can I change, the maxextent size of PSAPTEMP ?
Thank you for your attention.
Any useful help would be highly appreciated.
Best Regards.

Hello Michael,
>> temp tablespaces have tempfiles instead of datafiles, they never hold data, they don't need to be backup-ed / recovered
Not up to 100%
In previous releases it was possible to make a temporary tablespace as a type of permanent. But you are right.. if you create the tablespace as temporary.. you are not able to add some datafiles to it.
But now i have read the question of the topic creator again.. and i have to say that i have read out the first time.
>> 1/ Is it a "normal" setting in Oracle 10.2 to have the maxextent of PSAPTEMP = 0
Yes this is normal and described in metalinknote #108971.1
>This behavior is documented.  MAXEXTENTS is ignored for temporary tablespaces.  As stated in the SQL Reference guide, only NEXT is noted for temporary tablespaces.

  • System copy export  -  error message unable to extend temp segment PSAPTEMP

    I am performing an export of ECC ABAP+java instance and during the export of the source system I get the following error during the ABAP export:
    ORA-01652: unable to extend temp segment by 128 in tablespace PSAPTEMP
    ORA-27072: File I/O error
    What do I need to do with this error? I have extended the tablespace via brtools but still getting the error.
    Is this because I did not select the shutdown instance during the export? or do I need to do something more via brtools to the PSAPTEMP tablesapce?
    I am running on Oracle 10.2.0.2. unix

    Hello Mike,
    >> My PSAPTEMP is 8GB.
    I would bet the table you try to export is bigger (if you export sorted.. you will need temp space)
    >> You have said you increased it to 800GB, that is almost a terabyte. Is this correct?
    >> If so, how did you arrive at this figure.
    As i already said .. this was the temp space that i needed in a sorted exported with many parallel exports (splitted packages and splitted tables). The system that i have migrated was round about 3 TB and we need to do it very fast.. so i needed the temporary space for the many parallel actions... but this should not be the "normal" case if you have no specific values.
    >> And if you could define how you extended PSAPTEMP. Did you use brtools?
    I have extended it manually (over sqlplus) .. i have monitored it in my test cases with the view V$TEMPSEG_USAGE and increased it if necessary.
    >> did you recreate PSAPTEMP via SQLPLUS size 800GB and then dropped it and recreated to normal size?
    No, in my case i have exported and imported it at the same time (distribution monitor) so there was no need to drop it after the export, because i have build up a new target database. But under normal conditions you would only drop the tempfiles after your work has been done. This is possible with Oracle 10g (with some restrictions).

  • PSAPTEMP Tablespace in ECC6.0

    Dear all,
    After upgrading from 4.6c to ECC6.0, we found that the tablespace PSAPTEMP is quite different from the other tablespaces.
    Given below is the brtools output of the tablespaces:

    PSAPTEMP alone has the last field as 0:0:0:0:0.
    1. Do we need to modify/alter the psaptemp tablespace to be normal?
    2. How do we assign the correct size of the PSAPTEMP tablespace to our environment?

  • My PSAPTEMP tablespace always show 100% Full or Used

    Dear All ,
    Using brtools my tablespace PSAPTEMP always show 100% full or Used, I extend 2 Gb size in PSAPTEMP tablespace but still no solution
    Please guide me why it always shows 100% used and what is the performance impact on that
    Regards
    Shahid

    Hello Shahid,
    > Please guide me why it always shows 100% used and what is the performance impact on that
    This is a normal behaviour in case of a temporary tablespace.
    If you do sorts, hash-joins, etc. which can not be done in memory-only you allocate extents in the temporary tablespace. If you finish your query, that temporary extents will be marked as free but they still kept allocated. So over the uptime of your database your temporary tablespace will be filled by allocated (but marked as free) extents .. and so you will see it as "full". You can also check the current "real" usage of your temporary tablespace by the view V$TEMPSEG_USAGE:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/dynviews_2164.htm#i1421319
    The temporary extents will be deallocated by a database shutdown or by a database start, if the database crashed before.
    If you don't get any ORA-01652 by your query .. everything is fine.
    Regards
    Stefan

    Any ideas how to resolve this or is it a bug?
    Thanks
    Craig

    Hi Craig,
    Deactivating the alert could be the latest solution, but you should first check how the tempfiles are setup. If they are set as sparse files they might not use all the allocated space at FS level, but might grow up to it and cause an overflow...
    To deactivate that behavior you should copy temp files with a specific cp option (--sparse=never) to deactivate the sparse attribute as explained in the here under notes (the 2nd one is for 11g only thus not valid for you).
    Regards
    548221 - Temporary Files are created as sparse files
    Oracle creates files of temporary tablespaces as sparse files.
    'Sparse' is a special property a file in Unix operating systems can have. Sparse files are files that can dynamically grow and shrink depending on their content. So many sparse files can use a common pool of free disk space. Also the creation of a sparse file is much faster than creation of a normal file.
    Problems can occur if sparse files on the same disk grow in parallel and there is not sufficient free disk space for all to extend.
    Usage of sparse files is not a bug. Therefore there is no possibility to tell Oracle not to use sparse files for the temporary tablespace if the operating system offers sparse file functionality.
    1864212 - Forcing complete space allocation for temp files
    By default, temp files are not initialized when the file is created and therefore the disk space is not pre-allocated in the file system.

    1. You have a pre-release Beta 1 version of what will become Firefox 4 in like 5 or 6 months. Unless you are intending to test it for flaws and report those flaws to help in the development process, don't use it.
    2. Did you create a new Profile for 4.0b1, and are you using that Profile with it? ''That isn't done automatically when you install 4.0b1, and those of us who have been doing the "testing" for many years consider a new Profile as the basis of doing out testing.''
    [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+Profiles]
    IMO, Mozilla is making a huge mistake by directly offering these beta versions to the general public.
    Also IMO. if you want to play with 4.0b1, use the Portable Firefox 4.0beta version to minimize any conflicts with a currently installed version of Firefox, and to eliminate the need for creating a new Profile for 4.0 Beta #:
    Download Firefox Portable Test to your hard drive and double click the '''FirefoxPortableTest_4.0_Beta_#_English.paf.exe''' file. The entire installation (including a new Profile for "Portable") will be self-contained in the \Program Files\FirefoxPortableTest\ folder and won't interfere with an "official" version that you already have installed. Your Profile will be in the \Program Files\FirefoxPortableTest\Data\profile\ folder.
    The "down side" is that Firefox Portable won't launch if any other version of Firefox is already running.

  • Clicking on another app I get the video automatically returning to normal screen view

    I wonder why, if I put a youtube video in full screen and I click on another app WHILE THE VIDEO IS PLAYING all remain this way. On the contrary, if I first stop the video, clicking on another app I get the video automatically returning to normal screen view... This is very annoying. Is it possible to avoid this?
    Thanks

    Sorry, Mozilla doesn't support the patent-encumbered and royalty-encumbered H.264 standard, they support the OGG/Theodora and WebM free open source standards.
    Microsoft has a H.264 plugin for Firefox, but it is for Windows7 not WinXP or Win Vista. <br />
    http://www.interoperabilitybridges.com/html5-extension-for-wmp-plugin
    There may be other H.264 Firefox plugins out there for WinXP, so do a Google search. Or maybe contact support for that DVR security system and see if they know of or have a Firefox plugin.

    There were a few pain in the neck work-arounds and I am hoping that there may be easier ways to print iCal in the "Normal" views.
    Anyone have any news news on this?

    I googled this query and found that the is a glitch for 1 Apr 13. If this date has any 'all day' events it prevents displaying march 13 in month view.
    I amended all my appointments to 20 hour periods to cover the whole day and this alleviated my problem.

  • Normal list view in iTunes 8

    I can see how to switch all the views in iTunes. However when I go to the listing view (one on the left) everything is still grouped with album arts and what not showing in the display window. How can I get to just the normal "list" of songs that I can sort without this? I don't need album arts on the side as it gets annoying scrolling through 15,000 songs that aren't all on albums with art work.
    Is this totally gone?

    It looks like you are stuck in grid mode (middle). I click on list mode and there are all the songs just like before the update. Don't give up this feature wasn't removed it's just a matter of trying to figure out how to get the list button to work for you.

  • Macbook Pro issues - can anyone tell if 'normal' or faults

    I have some issues with my new 15" 2.66 unibody (non-removable batery) MBP. I'm told by the retailer that they are all normal/common - i'd like see if this is actually the case or they fobbing me off.
    1.) Something 'lose' inside the case around hard drive area - ie if i move the mac around (vertically is worst - ie imagine holding it with two hands with hinge sitting downwards, closed) i can hear something fairly hefty clunking back and forth against the inside of the shell (hard drive moving about?)
    2.) When i opn the lid for the first time after a period of the mac being closed, i get a reasonable creak/crack from the left side of the screen hinge.
    3.) When i run the battery down and it goes to sleep 'to preserve the contents of memory' it doesn't take long at all before battery so low it goes into deep sleep (ie state where all RAM contents are written to disk - and then takes a min or so to come to life again when you open the lid - my old macbook pro could last a good few hours in sleep mode before dying completely and deep sleeping
    I'd really like to know if anyone has noticed similar issues with their machines - or if indeed these are isolated issues to a few, aka faults.
    Thanks in advance

    1.) Something 'lose' inside the case around hard drive area - ie if i move the mac around (vertically is worst - ie imagine holding it with two hands with hinge sitting downwards, closed) i can hear something fairly hefty clunking back and forth against the inside of the shell (hard drive moving about?)
    The sudden motion sensor may make the appearance of something bouncing in there as it may activate while the drive is being moved around suddenly. However, if this does not appear to be the case, I'd ask an authorized service center.
    2.) When i opn the lid for the first time after a period of the mac being closed, i get a reasonable creak/crack from the left side of the screen hinge.
    Is the opening range different from other ones in the store?

    The battery may need calibration at first:

    If it is calibrated, and you aren't getting the life expected by that link for rudimentary usage, have the power manager looked at.

  • Firefox can't open normally without going through the "this is embarrassing" routine; nor does it close down properly; it also sticks frequently, i.e. screen freezes for a minute or more; should I uninstall and re-install to try and debug?

    Firefox can't open normally without going through the "this is embarrassing" routine; nor does it close down properly; I get the "end program" message and have to say "end now"it also sticks frequently, i.e. screen freezes for a minute or more; should I uninstall and re-install to try and debug?
    - I've used Firefox exclusively for around 2 years.
    - My outlook express has no problems
    - other programs seem unaffected; it seems peculiar to Firefox.
    - my main use is surfing the net, primarily entering competitions on line via specialist competition sites.
    - every day at some stage(s) I have to switch computer off as Firefox has got very slow/sticky/freezes.
    I'm not techy by any means, but I can only thing of un- and re-installing to hopefully start with a clean slate.

    Sounds like something is keeping Firefox from closing properly. See this: <br />

  • HT1363 Got iTunes 11.0.2 and iPod classic. ITunes no longer connects to iPod - wiped all contents and there is no way to re-connect - is this normal?

    Got iTunes 11.0.2 - as far as I know the latest version. My iPod classic no longer connects - gone through all on the "help" still won't work. There is nowhere with the word "device" and the iPod has now been wiped clean. Is this normal with the new version?

    You might want to try connecting to another computer with an older version of iTunes. If it connects, reformat it straight away just in case before adding your songs back in. Otherwise, you might want to seek for help at the official iTunes stores in your country. Chances are that the iPod might be corrupted, though iTunes being the problem can't be ruled out either.

  • Difference between Free goods and normal items

    hi,
    Instead of giving monetary benefits, the company prefers to give the free goods for the customer in the ratio of 1:1 occasionally.
    in standard sap, normal pricing procedure will be assigned to ur sales area Doc. pricing procedure (A) Customer pricing procedure, where as free goods also will be assigning it to ur sales area,but the document pricing procdure will be as C- denotes free goods.
    In sap, the free goods condition type is NA00, and even access seq. also will be Similar to condition type (it's ur wish to maintain like that), and the pricing procedure as NA0000.
    the transaction code for freegoods is VBN1, where u can maintain ur condition records, here there will be a two option.
    1. inclusive and 2. exclusive. maintain the records and save it.
    kindly check the item category TANN, there pricing relevance should be B- free goods.

  • My MB is always starting up in safe mode... why? What to do to start-up normally? Please help.

    Hi,
    I am frequently having troubles with my MB. Different types of troubles. Couldn't solve a single one yet.
    I have performed reboot MB in safe mode-- hold down the left shift key after the start up tone till the spinning gear appeared.
    Few hours back i performed that, and since then it just starting up in safe mode without holding the any shift key. I have password protected log-in and each time the dialog box shown the safe mode, not the normal boot as it used to be. I restarted so many times, but same result.
    I started-up by holding down the Option key, dialog box showing the same thing "safe mode" and same result.
    I started-up in single user mode, and then typed reboot, then pressed enter/return button, but dialog box shown the same and it started up in safe mode after entering the password.
    While in the safe mode, i have selected the Mac OS X 10.4.11 from the preference pane, then restarted, but all produced the same result, same dialog box showing the safe mode.
    I couldn't take the screen shot of that dialog box that appears before starting up.
    I am currently using the internet while in safe mode, and using ethernet adapter- a AirStream 1100 F25 external modem attached to the USB port. I don't know if that is good for my MB to use internet on the safe mode.
    I used disk utility and verified the disk during the safe mode, i don't know if that is right or wrong to perform that utility in safe mode, but it all appeared as normal. You can see that from the following image.
    Few days back, i performed the disk utility to verify disk while on the normal boot. But the result shown the red marks, please see the following image for details.

    Please help me out. Let me know how to start-up normally. By the way, my superdrive is not detecting DVDs including the OS dvds, but it read and write the CDs. So, It is not possible to reinstall OS early, at least not before the having the back up of the data. Please help me with contingency plan/s or as you think fit.
    Thank you. Look forward to your reply.

    Maximillianmann,
    depending upon how full “almost full” actually is, that could be the problem.
    You can try this, if you have Mac OS X 10.7 or newer installed, to see if it’s not related to your disk being almost full: boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Once you hear the startup chime, try booting into Safe mode; does it let you do so now?
