Setting the size of a tablespace prior to its creation

Hi guys,
Oracle version: 10.2.0.x
OS: Windows 32bit
I was wondering if there are any 'conditions' in setting the intial size of a tablespace prior to its creation. This is because, one of our customers wants to export and import from one schema into another but set an initial size for a tablespace during its creation and prior to importing data into it, but we have a database wizard tool that creates the accounts/schemas by using the following underlying sql:-
CRETE TABLESPACE <tbl_name> datafile <path><datafile_name>.dbf SIZE 100M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 100M MAXSIZE 32000M DEFAULT STORAGE (INITIAL 256 NEXT 256K MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS UNLIMITED PCTINCREASE 0) ONLINE;
Under normal circumstances, what he would do is to use our wizard tool and create an account and then import data from an export dump.
But he wants to create a tablespace using a SQL something like:-
CRETE TABLESPACE <tbl_name> datafile <path><datafile_name>.dbf SIZE 2000M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 500M MAXSIZE 32000M DEFAULT STORAGE (INITIAL 256 NEXT 256K MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS UNLIMITED PCTINCREASE 0) ONLINE;
He thinks this should be ok because his export dump would be on size 2GB and would want to import all of that 'at once' i.e. without actually using autoextend feature for the first 2GB.
Does this make any sense? Do you guys see any difference 'performance-wise' between the 2 create tablespace statements?
I think the second sql (with size 2000M initially) seems to be a more logical approach but I am not really sure of the implications going down the line performance-wise.
Any help/input much appreciated!
Thanks guys

1) Provide the facility in your tool to change the default size of datafiles and keep autoextend off.You won't believe it...we had this option in a previous version but now it isn't there anymore!
But why turning off AUTOEXTEND? I mean, our customers are not meant to modify anything in the database other than via using our software, hence we would want our customers to just use the software as it is but have their DBAs monitor the growth of any datafiles etc...
2) Let your tool do what it is doing and then manually increasing the size of the datafiles and making autoextend off once you have created the tablespace and before doing import. This can be done by your tool or loggin to the database.We could do this, but we don't want our customers to manually finger the database as they are/might not be Oracle-efficient and wouldn't want production systems to crash for the same reason.
Hence we could just give them the SQL to be replaced with the 'default' one and then create a tablespace via the tool which would create a tablespace with an initial size of 2GB+ and with greater autoextend facility (such as autoextend on 500M) rather than 100M so that there are fewer autoextends.
Also, in your point 2, are you saying to turn off autoextend only for the import and set it back on by alter tablespace....?
Thank you.

  • 11gR2 OLAP - How to define or set the  size of the OLAP PAGE?

    Hi,all!
    Could you help me? How to define or set the size of the OLAP PAGE in 11gR2?

    Edited by: [email protected] on 25.01.2010 8:36

    Hi there,
    The size of an OLAP AW page is automatically derived from the block size of the tablespace in which it is stored (which in turn is typically derived from the db_block_size initialisation parameter)
    Do you have a particular concern about this setting?
    Thanks,

  • How do you set the size / bounds of a waveform chart at run time?

    I have a plot area that I would like to fill with as many waveform charts as the user specifies (at run time). The "bounds" property is read only and I haven't noticed an additional "size" property for a waveform chart as there is for a button. Is there a way to set the size of a waveform chart at run time, and if not, why not? (Labview 6.1)

    Look at it a little more carefully, I suspect that your assumption is only half wrong. The property does only resize the plot area--LV resizes the frame to fit the resized plot on it's own.
    You'll need to bear this in mind when you're figuring-out what size to set the property to.

  • How to set the size for height of iView tray?

    Hi,
    I have created a ABAP webdynpro component and integrated this comp with iView. Then i integrated iView into Page in portal. That is working fine.
    But the size of tray/window which is displayed in the page is very small.
    How to increase the height of that Tray/window/iView containing my component?

    Hi,
    By changing the maximum automatic height and Minimum automatic height property of the iview you can set the size for height of your iview.
    to do this follow the setps:
    goto content administrator -> portal content -> your folder where you created your iview or directly to your iview -> right click -> open -> object,
    and now in property category choose appearance-Size from the drop down menu and set the above properties to your required height.
    if you want the end user to modify this property set the property to read/write .

  • How to set the size of an open dialog

    HI Everyone:
    I cannot set the size of the open dialog.
    I create a menu and menu item called "open"
    The menu item "open" will call OpenFile().
    However, I cannot set the size of the open dialog
    Everytime when the open dialog pops up
    the size isn't 500 x 500.
    Does anyone know what's wrong with this program ?
    Thanks a lot,
    Rodger
    ================================================================
    public void OpenFile(){
    JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
    fc.setSize(new Dimension(500,500));
    fc.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.FILES_AND_DIRECTORIES);
    fc.showOpenDialog(this);
    ================================================================

    Try this and then tell us if it worked:
    JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
    fc.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(500,500));
    fc.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.FILES_AND_DIRECTORIES);
    JDialog d = new JDialog(new JFrame());
    d.setSize(500, 500);
    d.getContentPane().setLayout(new FlowLayout());

    d.setVisible(true);

  • How to set the size of SUM()/SUM() of NUMBER Tyep?

    I met the oracle truncation error when I post the
    SUM(a field)/SUM(b field), a and b field are NUMBER Type
    From the OCI Doc, Numbers with up to 38 digits precision.
    and I set the size of data buffer 41 for NUMBER TYPE.
    (for example)
    rc = OCIDefineByPos( hstmt, &m_pDefine, ((CEBOracle *)pDatabase)->m_hpErr, index,
                   (dvoid *) m_lpszBindData, m_nBufSize+1, SQLT_STR,
                   (dvoid *) m_cbIndicator, (ub2 *) 0, (ub2 *) 0, OCI_DEFAULT);
    I always set the output datatype as SQLT_STR
    and m_nBufSize is 41 for NUMBER Type
    my client met the error when the result is 0.00012345678912345678912345678912345678912
    I think that it's not a solution that just enlarge the number form 41 -> 45
    How can I avoid this problem when user send the SQL Statement that the result has unlimited decimal number?
    Thank you in advancd

    ORA-01406 fetched column value was truncated
    I found the reason of that problem.
    I migrated from OCI Ver7 to Ver8
    If I set the buffer size to 10 (actually 40 in my program) and the result was
    0.0000000000000000001
    When I debuged the output buffer
    The result was 1.0E-19
    but now 0.00000000 and truncation error
    how to change floating point and scientific expression automatically depend on the result like OCI Ver7 and SQL PLUS?
    I changed define function
    odefin(m_hstmt, ii+1, (UCHAR *) m_lpszData[ii], m_lpLength[ii]+1, SQLT_STR, -1, m_lpcbValue[ii], 0, -1, -1, 0, 0);
    to
    m_rc = OCIDefineByPos( m_hstmt, &pDef, ((CEBOracle*) m_pDatabase)->m_hpErr, ii+1,
              (dvoid *) m_lpszData[ii], m_lpLength[ii]+1, SQLT_STR,
              (dvoid *) m_lpcbValue[ii], (ub2 *) 0, (ub2 *) 0, OCI_DEFAULT );

  • How to set the size of popups from KM Navigation Iview

    Hello guys
    Does any of you know how I can set the size of the window that pops up when you click on a resource/file in a KM navigation iview?
    I have tried to enter "width=100,height=100" (without the quotes) in the Window Features property of the KM Navigation Iview, but it does not influence the size of the popups.
    Any suggestions to what could be wrong? Or is it not possible at all to control the size of that popup?
    Kind regards,
    Martin

    Hi,
    I cheched yesterday if I could find the command, sorry I couldn't.
    I also realized that the layout generates html link tags (ie. <a />) for the resource links, no javascript open link functions (ie. window.open), wich doesn't alowed (as far as I know) to give size to the pop-up window.
    So to make the link of the resource (gived by the <b>displayname(contectlink)</b> property set) I think you would have to <i>create (develop)</i> the layout, so the link will be rendered with window_size.
    You have other option, you can take off the "<i>contentLink</i>" setting. and add the <b>download</b> command, so the user who want to open / save the document can click on this command and do it in their PC.
    I.E, Create a copy of the <b>download</b>, and add this to the Collection render displayed porpeties:
    rnd:command(command=Z_download/style=link)
    You ca also use and icon to represent the download (you can set that icon in the command)
    I.E, rnd:command(command=Z_download_icon/style=icon)
    This last options represents a problem with the km-only-read content like xml files generaded by xml forms, it can only be readed in the km-portal.
    I hope this might help you.
    Best regards,
    Jorge M.

  • How to set the size of combo box  using jsf

    I face problem when i set the size of a combo in jsf

    Is it not possible to use it with a GridBagLayout?Your question was "How do I get a tabbed pane to take all the space of the frame"?
    You where given the answer. Did you try it? Did it work? Then why are you questioning the suggestion?
    Its one line of code if you use a BorderLayout which by the way was specifically designed for this purpose.
    Yes you can do it with a GridBagLayout with about 5 lines of code.
    So the question is why would you want to write 5 lines of code when you can use one?
    If your question was "How do I waste my time forcing the GridBagLayout to size a component to take up all the space of the frame", then you would have received a different answer. (Although most people would have told you to use a BorderLayout anyway, since its easier).

  • How to set the size of the frame in the decoration controls

    Hi,
    I am drawing some frames or boxes using the patterns in the "Decorations" control in labview.
    Is there other way to set the size of the frames or boxes rather than to drag them? also how can I change the color of the borders?
    Thanks,
    Joyce
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Select the item.  Go to the Resize Objects button on the toolbar.  Pick the last one which shows a resize within a dialog bubble.  Now a dialog pops up which lets you define the height and width.
    To color something, Shift right click to bring up the toolbox.  Pick the paint brush.  Click on the thing you want to change such as the border.  It might now be the wrong color, so right click which brings up the color picker.  Now select the color you actually want.  If you want something to be transparent, pick the T at the upper right corner of the color dialog box.

  • How to set the size of a Font in Pixel?

    Hi,
    i know how to get the screen resolution of the current monitor and I know how to use Fonts (and I know how to read the API, but that didnt help).
    Is there a way to set the size (or at least the height) of a Font in pixel rather then in points?
    All I actually need is how many pixels the height of my String will be when I print it on the screen.
    I use Swing and drawString(...) to draw my String (this information shouldnt matter, but just in case).
    thanx

    Hi,
    search doc about FontMetrics, you'll find infos about how to get the font height... If I remember well, you need to get the Graphics of the component, then call getFontMetrics() or getFontMetrics(font) to obtain the metrics, then call getHeight() to know the font height...
