Oracle server running out of space

We have a linux(debian)server which has Oracle10g in it and it is running out of space now. So we decided to add some more disk space(adding a new hard drive in the same server). But if we want to add more data files how can I tell the DB to use the added disk space. Since all the data files are existing in /home/oracle/oradata/orcl and their tablespace (USERS) are in the old disk,is it possible to tell the DB to use the added disk.
Please let me know if that can be done and how.
Thanks in advance.

Drop the tablespace. If you are sure you don't need it.

Oracle Home running out of space

Hi,
I have installed oracle application server 10g and oracle 10g on an Linux server.
Both products have been installed on the /oracle partition which is about 11GB
The database control and data files have been setup to another partition /oradata.
After a few months i seem to be running out of space on the /oracle partition.
I think it might be due to some log files. Can anyone please give me ideas on which files I can safely purge on the application server home and database home to create some space on the /oracle parition
Thanks

hi Prativ,
For oracle application server,
The log files in the below three location can be purged,if you want u can take a backup of these older log files in another mount point before deleting
1st $ORACLE_HOME/webcache/logs
2nd $ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/OC4J_BI_Forms/log/OC4J_BI_Forms_default_island_1/
Purge the default-web-access.log and server.log
3rd $ORACLE_HOM/Apache/Apache/logs

Oracle 10g RAC implementation running out of space

I have an Oracle RAC implementation setup on a Sun Storagetek 6140 for storage. I have allocated 100gb of space to Oracle but am constantly running out of space during operations. I know that i can allocate additional disk space using Common Array Manager for the Storagetek. How do i get ASM to recognize the fact that there is additional space available to it?

Hi buddy,
How do i get ASM to recognize the fact that there is additional space available to it?You have two options:
1- The first one is create a new LUN, configure it at the OS level and add the disk to disk group.
alter diskgroup add disk '<DISK_DEVICE_PATH>';
2- The second one is increasing the LUN size (if possible, of course) and resize the disk.
alter diskgroup <DISK_GROUP_NAME> resize disk '<DISK_NAME>' <NEW_SIZE>;
Hope it helps,
Cerreia

I want to save my old emails as I've run out of space on my service providers server for my email.

I want to save my old emails as I've run out of space on my service providers server for my email.
I can't Archive as that takes space alos on the server.
What is the best way to do this and still access/read the old emails on my iMac, 10.8.4?

You can just drag the emails to "On My Mac" which will save them locally. Or you can use a third-party archive utility. If you're using Mail, you might look into MailSteward which will archive all your mail, including attachments, into a database:

I've used it for years and have been quite satisfied with it.

Wedding photography running out of space. Need help with thousands of photos, and workflow

So my studio does wedding photography. Me and my partner both take photos. We have about 30,000 photos just from the last 2 years. We are running out of space big time. We both have 1 terabyte magnetic hard drives in our computers. I have about 80gb left and she has about 120gb left. Needless to say, since I myself take about 50gb of photos per wedding, I'm not going to last long. We use lightroom.
So far I have managed to backup everything on an external 2TB hard drive for both of us. I save both RAW and Jpegs to it. I also have everything backed up on an online server. So here's my first issue. What I've been doing, is for the previous year (completed weddings) I delete all the RAWs from the computers. I leave the JPEG's on the computer incase I need them quickly. I keep all the RAWS on the external hard drives and online. But even doing this, deleting the RAWs from completed weddings off the internal hard drives, I'm still almost out of space. My computer is so slow because of this even though it's a top of the line computer with 6 gigs of triple channel ram. Lightroom runs so very slow and lags so bad.
So my first question is: By deleting the raws off of my computer, if I need to go back a few years from now and re-save the raw files or re-edit, will lightroom remember my develop settings or will I have to completely re-edit every photo? I have been saving a catalog file for each year, and start a new one every year. I do not use XMP sidecar files I save everything to the lightroom database. As long as I have the catalog file backed up, am I safe? Or am I doing this wrong? Because if open an old catalog file, it will say all the photos are not found on my computer (obviously).
My second question is: I am going to be investing in more hard drives and want to do it right this time around. I want to invest in SSD drives for maximum performance. Here is what my plan is. One SSD drive for windows/programs, one SSD drive for lightroom scratch disk, and one 1TB "Velociraptor" 10,000rpm magnetic hard drive for keeping the actual images on. Is this not right? Am I planning this out wrong?
Here is our current workflow. I am very welcome to suggestions:
1) Shoot wedding.
2) Import RAW files from CF card to computer. It goes in a folder for the client with the images going into different sub folders by category such as "reception" and "ceremony"
3) Import folder into lightroom4.
4) Edit photos. I do not use XMP sidecar, I use database.
5) Export files in JPEG form into the same client folder.
6) At the end of the year I save the catalog, make a new catalog for the new year. I delete the RAW files off of my hard drive after backing them up on 2TB external hard drive. I leave the jpegs and the client's folder on the computer hard drive.

My guess is that you are not actually deleting the original raws from your internal hard drives and have lots and lots of crud around that you are not aware off so you should go through your internal drives with a fine-toothed comb. Don't forget to actually empty the trash when you delete! 1TB is more than enough disk space for storing the Lightroom catalog file, previews and some jpegs. 30.000 photos is really not that much. My main catalog has >50.000 images in it with the raw files all stored on external hard drives. The catalog itself is on my internal 256 GB SSD HD that also houses the previews (so I can use it with the raw files offline) and the operating system as well as a lot of software (photoshop, office, iWorks, Aperture, etc.). It is more than enough space as it still has more than 150 GB free. I automatically back up everything, including the external HD that stores the raw images to separate external HDs stored in different places.

TWO Itunes accounts Running out of space on each laptop. Moving one accont fully to NEW machine wit 3tb drive NAS. Can i move second mdeia libary to nas drive ?? Ie tow itunes libraries on NAS drive working independantly

Two I-Tunes libaries (Mine & My Wifes) Both Machines running out of space.
My FIX Moving All itunes account Libary etc to new PC with NAS 2tb drive (IOMEGA)or Seagate or LaCie or etc......
Can i copy the Bulky Library files ITUNEs from My Wifes laptop to the NAS drive ?
Is this easy to do ?
ALSO She will still have itunes on her laptop just none of the Bulky Library !
As the ITUNES program will be Pointed to her files (Library on NAS drive ) ?
If someone has done a walkthrough of something like this id really appreciate it?
LASTLY I did hear with itunes new Updates that it stops NAS Drives Streaming Media ? (SO is a NAS drive No use if apple are no allwing the streaming for itunes Server)

By default, the ITL is always on the C: drive.
SO it seems you moved yours to the exHD. Just moving it doesn't do anything, though...did you ever do a shift-start of itunes and use it as your library?
Pressing AND HOLDING the shift key until you get a prompt from ituens to choose a library ITL file.
I would do that now before you go any further, to make sure of which library files you want to use.
I would assume the one with the most recent date is the one you want.
iTunes uses the last library opened. You don't always have to do a shift-start, in other words.
However if at any point you start itunes without the exHD connected, it automatically goes back to the C: drive.
In that case, you WOULD need to do another shift-start to use the ITL on the exHD>
It's option-start on a Mac, BTW.
You can move the whole folder over to your new MBP and do an option-start.
Clear as mud?

TimesTen running out of space

Hello!
We are ORACLE dba's who are new to TimesTen... We are running v7. TimesTen checkpoint and log files are in the /opt/TimesTen/TimesTenData directory, and /opt is running out of space. How do we relocate the logs and checkpoint files to a different destination? Alternatively, is there a way to relocate the whole TimesTen to a different destination?
Thank you very much,
Katya

Sounds like you installed TimesTen in /opt, which is fine. However it is not a good idea to put TT datastore files into /opt. You need to allocate the checkpoint and log files to filesystems that have enough space for your requirements. Also, if your application is write intensive, you should be sure to assign checkpoint files (DataStore attribute) and log files (LogDir attribute) to different filesystems located on different disks to avoid I/O contention.
The way to relocate the datastore is as follows:
1. Identify the new target locations for the checkpoint and log files. Create suitable directories for them there and set permissions etc. as required.
2. Stop all applications that are using the datastore. If replication and/or cache connect are being used, stop the cache/replication agents too.
3. Take a full backup of the datastore to some directory on disk using the ttBackup command.
4. Make sure that the datastore is not in memory and drop the datastore using ttDestroy.
5. Edit the ODBC attributes (in <tt_install_dir>/info/sys.odbc.ini) for the DSN in question and set DataStore and LogDir to point to the correct new locations. If you are using replication or cache connect, it is imperative that the last component of the new DataStore attribute is the same as the old one. For example if right now you had something like:
DataStore=/opt/TimesTen/TimesTenData/*mydb*
and you want to move the checkpoint files to the directory /u01/db/ttdb you should set the attribute to
DataStore=/u01/db/ttdb/*mydb*
Also note that the value for LogDir is the path of an existing directory without any filename component.
6. Restore the datastore from the backup you made using the ttRestore utility.
7. Connect to the datastore with ttIsql and check it is okay.
8. Restart cache and/or replication agents if they are being used.
9. Restart the application.

Old xserve running out of space.

Our roughly two and a half year old 2x2 Ghz DualCore intel xenon xserve came with 3 x 750 GB disks.
Two of them are mirrored, for system and files, and the third contains retrospect backup. It was the largest disks available when we got the server.
We are running out of space, and need to do something with the matter in the near future.
I am wondering if newer and larger disks are compatible with the server ( 1TB ore larger ), or should we go for an external "box" of some kind.
Any advices? We have limited resources at the moment.
Kind regards
hoa

I'd look to go external via SAS or SATA interconnect if feasible and if you've got the requisite PCI-X or PCIe slot open; per the [Xserve disk support document (HT1219)|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1219], you're not going to get a big boost replacing the internal drive modules (ADMs) from 750 GB to 1 TB.
I'd probably toss the "other" stuff onto an external (hardware RAID) disk array (disk shelf), and leave the system pieces in the box.

Running out of space on Startup Disk

I keep getting a message that I'm running out of space on my Startup Disk every time I try to do certain things with software on my Macbook Pro. it's a year old and shouldn't really be having this problem. Why might this be happening? What do I have to delete to keep it from happening again?

You may be better served by reposting in the MacBook Pro forums. You are in the one for older PowerBook G4s.

Tablepace running out of space fast!

Hi,
One of our tablespace is running out of space quite fast since last month.
Originally that tablespace had only one datafile with 4GB space, now we have 4 datafiles - each 4 GB
This week we will have to add another datafile, and I have a question:
is better to assign this time more space to datafile (ex. 8GB, 10GB...) or keep still 4GB like previous one?

Depending on your version, Oracle is capable of handling 32GB files without no degradation in performance. I wouldn't bother about restricting my datafile size to 4GB. And you said you are using SAN as storage which probably has 14 disks minimum, who cares about striping between 4 datafiles in a single tablespace?
If your tablespace has grown 3 times in a month, have you considered checking if it is legit? For how long was it sitting at 4GB initially? is your PCTFREE and PCTINCREASE set properly? In short, make sure you don't have wasted extents.

Onedrive for business "the server is out of space"

hi,
- on premise SharePoint server 2013
- dedicated "my site" web application.
- the sites collection has the right quotas
- the server has a lot of space available.
OneFor Business client app have a strange behaviour:
- I synch small files < 1mb: works
- I synch one file of 300 mb, the client app (OneDrive for b) give me "the server is out of space"
- I remove my "300mb" file from my client and I synch one file of 50mb: works
- I synch other 10 files of 50mb and WORKS
- I retry to synch the file of 300mb and the client app give me "the server is out of space"
- I remove the file with the error and I try to synch a smaller file like 250 or 200 mb, same error.
- I try to synch other files of 50, 60, 70mb that added more than 300mb and WORKS!
what is the problem ?

Have you looked at Site Quotas on the MySites in Central Administration on the SharePoint server, as well as Database size to validate that there isn't database size restrictions in place, and lastly, free space on the volume holding the database files
on the SQL Server?

Can you archive old calendar items in Entourage so you don't run out of space on your Blackberry?

Hi everyone,
I have a Sprint Pearl 8130 and I am syncing with PocketMac to Entourage 2004 on an iBook G4 running OS 10.3.
Most of my syncing issues are minor (for some reason, in contacts, work and home email addresses switch fields, but I can live with that) and I don't have too many complaints about PocketMac for now....
My question is - Does anyone know how to archive old calendar items so that my Blackberry doesn't run out of space? I have calendar items going back to the beginning of 2008. I don't need past calendar items on my Blackberry, except for reoccurring items, like birthdays and such, and maybe a month's worth of old appointments just for reference. My Blackberry has run out of space a couple of times and when it deletes the appointments from my Blackberry, syncing wants to either delete from the Mac or restore to the Blackberry. I know you can do this with a Palm and their Palm software, since I used to have one and I was able to archive items older than a week. Then you would be able to access them in a separate archive profile.
I have searched everywhere and the closest thing I can find is to purchase Missing Sync and set to match my sync date range. https://support.markspace.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=327. But that doesn't really solve my issue of running out of space on my Blackberry. The other thing that I could think of is to export the calendar items into a .rge file, then delete the calendar items from there, sync, and have PocketMac remove items from my Blackberry, but it would be a pain to easily access old calendar items.
I appreciate any thoughts, ideas and especially solutions!

I have the exact opposite issue you mentioned
my client wants his archived calender items to be synched to his 8830 world wide ed.
he is running RIM software (DesktopManager) v 6.4
BES 2007
current issue is that his archived old calendars are not synchronizing to his handheld; we tried to force his PC to synch those items manually through cable, which didn't help, since our BES policy force waireless synch policy to the device and wireless synch never can see the archived items files
I think if you can set the option on your device so it turns on the calendar wireless synch, and also make sure MAC does not select archive to synch
Calendar > Options > General settings or /Wireless synch set to ON;
if you running BES set Calendar Wireless synch off

I would get an external drive today and copy all your stuff off the TC.. forget trying to load more onto it. There is a good chance after 3years (A 2TB should be only about 2years tops), the disk or the TC itself is on the way out. Do it immediately. If TM is also failing to backup you need to recognise symtoms of impending doom.
Unfortunately the error messages are archane and it is hard to discover their meaning.
You also cannot verify a network drive.. you can verify the TM sparsebundle though so do that.
A5. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
Reboot the whole network from off.. certainly if you run later OS it can simply lose the drive..
If you still fail to be able to copy to the TC.. then get that external and copy off it. Tell us if you can do that.
