Running out of tablespace

Hi,
Currently our DBA activities are outsourced (to one of the big guys). We recently got an email from the DBA saying we were running out of tablespace, currently 35 GB allocated with 97% used. That was pretty much what was in the email.
Our database should be quite small, about 5GB, but it's quite hard to see what's using all of the space. What should we do now to find out what's using it all? If we need to contact the DBA what things should we get him to look for?
Thanks.

Thanks for the replies. I tried select * from user_segments and this row came out as consuming most of the space. Any idea what it does?

  • ORA-30928: "Connect by filtering phase runs out of temp tablespace"

    i have created a query that is sued to display a data in a label. This particular query will then be stored into a program that we use. The query runs just fine until this morning when it returns the error ORA-30928: "Connect by filtering phase runs out of temp tablespace". I have Googled and found out that I can do any of the following:
    Include a NO FILTERING hint - but did not work properly
    Increase the temp tablespace - not applicable to me since this runs in a production server that I don't have any access to.
    Are there other ways to fix this? By the way, below is the query that I use.

    Hi,
    The documentation implies that the START WITH and CONNECT BY clauses should come before the GROUP BY clause. I've never known it to make a difference before, but you might try putting the GROUP BY clause last.
    If you're GROUPing by LEVEL, what's the point of SELECTing MAX (LEVEL)? MAX (LEVEL) will always be the same as LEVEL.
    What are you trying to do?
    Post some sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements) and the results you want from that data, and somebody will help you get them.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Suggestion? Running out of rearms (time) building large master Win7 image - Should I use KMS until capture?

    I am building a Window 7 Ent master image containing 200+ engineering applications which will be deployed to 800+ systems. My problem is, I'm close to running out of activations and am now down to one rearm remaining. I have the option of using our
    KMS server.
    Question: Is it allowed that I point my non-domain member master Windows 7 image at our KMS server to activate the OS while I continue to install software up until the point I'm ready to shut down and capture my master image? 
    If perform the above-mentioned procedure do I leave the master image pointing at our KMS server during the capture process? Or, do I remove the settings from the registry? After the client is joined to the domain, a GPO points all clients to our KMS server
    anyway.
    Or does it not matter that I continue building my master build image, with one rearm left, leaving it prompt me that my Windows 7 Ent. copy "may be counterfeit". 
    Thanks for your time in advance! 

    Hi,
    Yes, you can point a non-domain member master Windows 7 image at your KMS server to activate the OS, it should be done by Manually Specifying a KMS Host with a command:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793406.aspx
    After the Windows 7 image is activated by the KMS, you can run this command with administrator permission to check the rearm time:  Slmgr.vbs /dlv
    Details about deploying KMS clients can also be found at :
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793406.aspx

    Either of these should help.

    Or search 'disk size' in the App Store.
    Be carefull with what you delete & have a backup BEFORE you start, you may also want to reboot to try to free any memory that may have been written to disk.

  • MBP running out of battery power before sleeping - Help!

    Hi
    My MacBook Pro has been running out of battery power before the memory-saving sleep mode kicks in, so it dies with a little click of the HD. It's not a hibernation state as when I reattach the power supply it boots up a new session.
    I've noticed this since upgrading to Snow Leopard last year, but put it down to an old battery that had 45% charge and wasn't powering the MBP properly. I now have a replacement A1175 5600mAh battery which is giving me 2-3hrs usage (which I'm pleased at), but now it still dies before sleeping!
    I have tried to cycle the new battery, but can't. I have reset the SMC several times, with no effect.
    I used to cycle the battery every week or two, running it down until it would no longer wake from sleep, recharge overnight etc, but now I can't do this because it will die before sleeping!
    I've read quite a few articles over the net about this issue, but there seems like no cure. It's really annoying me now as I frequently work on the move and a dying MBP could potentially be disastrous.
    Can anyone shed some light on this issue? Is there something I haven't tried yet? I think it's a late '06 MBP.

    If you are not getting a warning, then there is something amiss with your battery. If a SMC reset and calibration does not fix the problem, then you may need to make an appointment at the genius bar and arrange to have your battery tested.
    My old battery started doing the same thing--shutting down without warning. I replaced it, and the replacement battery started doing the exact same thing. I then returned the replacement, and the next replacement battery behaves in a normal fashion.
    My first battery was worn out. My second battery was defective. My third battery is good.
    Your battery should still be under warranty. Go back to where you got it and show them what it is doing and see if you can get a replacement.
    Good luck!

  • I ordered a battery for my laptop because it said to replace battery soon.  How long can I let the new battery sit around as I wait for the old one to run out of more charge?

    I ordered a battery for my laptop because it said to replace battery soon.  How long can I let the new battery sit around as I wait for the old one to run out of more charge?  Will the new one become less effective if it sits around too long?

    How much capacity is remaining on your current battery?
    Check your power status
    From the  menu: Hold OPTION and click System Information... èHardware è Power
    Copy and Paste in your reply.
    The new battery will become less effective if you store it in a hot or humid environment. It should be stored at room temperature (22 C).
    Long term storage (6 months):
    Apple recommends that you store the battery with a 50% charge. If you store a battery when it’s fully discharged, it could fall into a deep discharge state, which renders it incapable of holding any charge. Conversely, if you store it fully charged for an extended period of time, the battery may experience some loss of battery capacity, meaning it will have a shorter life.

  • Connection leaks and application is running out of connection

    Hi All,
    We have configured the SQL Database external resource for OBPM specific connection pool. All the business processes are using the Fuego.Sql package for the data base transaction calls. I have no clue how this package is managing the database connections. If more than 25 users perform concurrent testing, the application is running out of connections. Connection pool configuration details as below.
    Maximum Pool Size : 500
    Maximum connections per user : 50
    Minimun Pool Size : 0
    Connection Idle Time (mins). : 5

    Please share your thoughts on how I can track and fix this issue. Also please let me know the answers below.
    1. Is there any way to find out the stats about the connection pool
    2. If I configure the remote JDBC that points to J2EE datasource, would that fix this issue.

  • How do I use an external hard drive with iMovie 10.0.1? I have run out of disk space on my Macbook Air.

    How do I use an external drive with iMovie 10.0.1?  It is not obvious and I have run out of space.

    If you want to move a complete iMovie 10 library (file with .imovielibrary extension) click on the library in the libraries pane and select  File - Consolidate Library Media.  This ensures that all media is copied to the library.  You can then move the library onto your external drive using Finder.  The first time to want to access it from iMovie you will have to tell it where it is by choosing  File - Open Library -Other and navigating to it.
    If you only want to transfer part of a library to another drive, create a new library a at the desired location  File - Open Library - New  and copy projects and events to it from within iMovie.
    Its all described in iMovie help - "Work with multiple libraries".

  • I am trying to edit my music list and then sync it to my iPhone 5 so I don't run out of storage space. However, I see the check marks on the iTunes library but am unable to uncheck them? How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone?

    I am trying to edit my music list and then sync it to my iPhone 5 so I don't run out of storage space. However, I see the check marks on the iTunes library but am unable to uncheck them? How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone? (the check marks are not bolded, does this mean they are not in my library but only on my phone?)

    You uncheck the music in your iTunes library on your computer and along with sync only checked songs and videos selected under the Summary selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, only checked songs in your iTunes library will be transferred to your iPhone or remain on your iPhone and the unchecked songs in your iTunes library that are currently on your iPhone will be removed when syncing.
    Or make use of iTunes playlists and choose selected playlists, albums, artists under the Music selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and select the playlists below that you want transferred to your iPhone.

    Depending on how you created your account, "None" may or may not be an option. I believe it has something to do with whether the account was made through an App Store request or the regular iTunes Store. For example, my account allows no card but my father's doesn't allow there to be no card.
    To change the card, go to your account settings and change the information to your new card, and hit save.
