Space promblem in oracle 10g

Hi,
I have taken dump for specifc schema with 0 rows i.e only scripts in production database using exp utlity.In production database, the tablespace inital size is 1GB with max size unlimited.I have imported the exported dump file into local machine.During the loading, the tablespace size is overflow. we are getting unable to extents tablespace error. My local machine tablespace inital size is 100MB with max size unlimited.but in os level, some space is present.
i want to load these dump into local machine without production tablespace size.
Please help me..
Thanks,
Michael

+//I have taken dump for specifc schema with 0 rows i.e only scripts in production database using exp utlity//+
does this mean, you have taken a export of a prticular schema, with ROWS=N parameter.
+//n production database, the tablespace inital size is 1GB with max size unlimited//+
what is the current size of the tablespace ?
+//My local machine tablespace inital size is 100MB with max size unlimited//+
since you didnt expect any rows from the table, you expect the target tablespace should accomodate the entire schema, without expanding.
what happens during export is that, for performance improvement, the tables are scripted along with the new storage parameter, this new storage parameters will be the existing size of the table. so no matter if you don't export rows, still the tables will be created with the same size of the table in production.
example. if you have created a table with 1 mb and the table over the years has grown to 1 gb. and now iif you export the table with rows=n parameter, and import in a different schema, it will be created with 1 gb size only.
there is a way to override this. check the compress parameter in export. note: i have made lot of assumptions here for answering the question

How to Access Table Space Map in Oracle 10g OEM

How and from where to Access Table Space Map in Oracle 10g OEM ??
Thanks

Hi,
first of all, the online help system of grid control is outstanding. Just click on Help in the upper right corner and enter "Tablespace Extent Map" in the search form.
Result:
Show Tablespace Contents Page
Each Oracle database is divided into one or more logical units called tablespaces. You can use Oracle Enterprise Manager to manage these tablespaces and create or modify the parameters for the tablespaces. Use the Tablespace property sheet to set general and storage information for the specified tablespace.
Use the Show Tablespace Contents page to display the list of tablespace segments that comprise the existing tablespace. You can display Tablespace Extents by choosing Show Tablespace Extent Map at the bottom of the page. An extent is a logical unit of database storage space allocation made up of a number of contiguous data blocks. One or more extents in turn make up a segment. When the existing space in a segment is completely used, Oracle allocates a new extent for the segment.
You can view segment extents by clicking on the link in the Extents column to display the Extents in Segments page.
You can display the Show Tablespace Contents page by choosing Show Tablespace Contents from the command drop down list on the Tablespace property page, the Tablespace View page, or the Tablespace search results page.
Note: Developers could only display the tablespace map to a maximum hard coded number of 30,000 extents. Tablespaces are often larger than that. If a tablespace is larger than 30,000 extents, the portion over that is displayed as Unmapped. To avoid exceeding the memory capacity of the tablespace map and to display the map without unmapped extents, use a search criteria displaying results of less than 30K extents.
For an overview of tablespaces, see the "Overview of Tablespaces " chapter of the Oracle Database Concepts Guide.
For more information about managing tablespaces, see the " Managing Tablespaces" chapter of the Oracle Database Administrators Guide.
For more information about managing datafiles, see the " Managing Datafiles and Tempfiles" chapter of the Oracle Database Administrator's Guide.

Table space not reduce after delete in oracle 10g

Hi..
Based on my system, i have found that my oracle table space did not reduce after the deletion query. Why ?.. Could somebody help me. As your info, I am using oracle 10g.
Thank you,
Baharin

After Delete the table space will not be set free. high water mark will not be reset. to regain the space you need to recognize the objects from which you deleted the data. This can be done in many ways.
1) Move the objects.
Alter table temp move --> optionally tablespace clause can be used. After this you need to rebuild table indexes.
2) With 10g table can be shrinked or reorganize to free the space.
alter table mytable enable row movement;
alter table mytable shrink space;
3) Export/Import
export the objects and drop and recreate with import.

Alter SHRINK SPACE in oracle 10g

Hello,
My table PRICE_T table gets deleted and inserted almost 50 million records everyday.
Now it takes too much time to perform this operation because of TABLE fragmented.
i can use "CREATE table as select” option to remove fragmentation from table.
but i dont want to use this option.
so i hv tried ALTER TABLE SHRINK SPACE as i m using ORACLE 10g
alter table price_t enable row movement;
alter table price_t shrink space
alter table price_t disable row movement;
and i have applied following query to check table gets remove free space but still having free space after applying ALTER SPACE COMMAND
select table_name,round((blocks*8),2)||'kb' "size1",round((num_rows*avg_row_len/1024),2)||'kb' "size"
from DBA_tables
where table_name = 'PRICE_T';
Tablespace in PRICE_T table fall into is SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO
please help me to remove fragmentation from table using SHRINK command.
Thanks.

Now it takes too much time to perform this operation because of TABLE fragmented.How do you define "fragmented"?
Why do you believe that your table is fragmented?
Why do you believe that the fragmentation is causing performance problems?
select table_name,
round((blocks*8),2)||'kb' "size1",
round((num_rows*avg_row_len/1024),2)||'kb' "size"
from DBA_tables
where table_name = 'PRICE_T'; - What is the output of this query before and after you shrink the table?
- Are your statistics up to date? NUM_ROWS, BLOCKS and AVG_ROW_LENGTH provide information to the optimizer-- they are estimates gathered when object statistics are gathered. They are not maintained by Oracle in real time and may be substantially out of date.
- I don't see any attempt to account in this query for overhead like PCTFREE.
- Is there a reason that you aren't using the DBMS_SPACE package? This query seems highly suspect.

Oracle 10g not releasing space after delting the records

Hello
We have a tool which uses Oracle 10g as database. We have been deleting records from the tool and the table space does not show any improvements in the free space. When we have taken the dump and recreated the schema all the unused space is visible. Before recreating the schema database was showing 17.5 GB after recreatig it has hardly 1G which is real. Clearly this is not recommended on a production environemt. Please suggest.

By performing DELETE operations you will not get back the used space. Extents are still allocated to the segments. To free unused extents you may have to do one of the following:
1) move table within the same tablespace
2) shrink the table
3) exp/imp

Oracle 10g DBCA error - not enough space on root?

Im running Oracle 10g on HP-UX 11i.
Oracle software is installed ok. Already created a database succesfully. I have now deleted that database and am creating a new one using dbca.
When I get to the final step I get the following error:
You do not have enough free disk space to create the database. You need at least 785,408KB on /, you only have 753,664KB available please allocate more free disk space.
The above is true but I am not putting any datafiles/ redo logs etc on root they are on a separte logical volume. Why does it need all this space on root? I cant add any more space to root anyway as I cant unmount root and extend it.
Cant find anything about this in the oracle documentation, I can only think my oracle software install has got messed up causing this strange error?
Can anyone help? Thanks.

Did you pick same options both the time?

How to avoid:Query returns extra trailing spaces in oracle 10g

I want to use cursor sharing FORCE, SIMILAR for performance tuning. but i am having some problems like query process will give extra trailing spaces this will throw errors from the java application while reading literals.
do we have any option in oracle 10g to avoid extra trailing spaces during query processing ?
alter session set cursor_sharing ='EXACT'
select 1 from dual;
'1'
1
alter session set curson_sharing='FORCE'
select 2 from dual;
'2'
2
alter session set curson_sharing='SIMILAR'
select 3 from dual;
'3'
3

You are right, But we already wrote millions of queries during that time we used cursor sharing is EXACT. so i don't want to take risk in modifying all the existing queries by adding TRIM.
do we have any option in oracle to trim after/ during processing the query.
Now we are facing performance issues and suggested us to use SIMILAR as cursor_sharing. but all the selected rows are giving extra tralining spaces.
I think i am clear now.

Why do I get spaces between the printed fields? (Oracle 10G)

Hi!
I use Oracle 10G and I have a program that doesn't work the way it does on previous versions of Oracle. Or maybe it's a wrong options?!?
Well i need to print the fields from a table with no spaces between them. Instead I get spaces between the fields. As if the dimension of the printed field is three times the real dimension of the field (even if I use SUBST, RTRIM, LPAD).
For example I have
SELECT '1', '2' FROM dual;
I get "1 2 " instead of "12"
The program is something like this:
SET SCAN ON
SET SPACE 0
SET PAGESIZE 0
SET PAUSE OFF
SET FEEDBACK OFF
SET HEADING OFF
SET EMBEDDED ON
SET VERIFY OFF
SET TERMOUT OFF
SET LINESIZE 4750
spool &&4
Select campo1, campo2 from tabella;
Oh! It's not possible to concatenate the fields. campo1 || campo1. I get error, I presume, because of the dimension of the line (4750).
Thanks,
Miky

SET COLSEP doesn't work! SPACE 0 should do the same, but doesn't work either When you complains that solution doesn't work, you should provide us the output you got. Because as I showed, and as shoblovk show it worked fine on our side.
Anyway, what's the version of your Oracle client (SQL*Plus), OS... ?

Blank space updatation to Collection field in Oracle 10g

Hi,
we have the Oracle 9i database in the dev environment and Oracle 10g in Production environment.
In Oracle 9i, the below scenario works find, but in Oracle 10g it won'nt, The scenerio is ,
Update table1
set test_collection = ' '; -- works fine in Oracle 9i , but it wont works in Oracle 10g,
Update tabel1
set test_collection = null; -- works in both the versions.
Please suggest,.
raja k

What is myv, is that the collection name ?? See post number 5 of this thread where I declared it.
>
In Oracle 9i, we need not to specify the collection
name while updating the collection type field in the
table. 9.2.0.6 was notoriously buggy and wasn't considered stable till 9.2.0.7 if I recall correctly. And now (thankfully) it's unsupported.
The sql code was written in concern to Oracle 9i, now
while migrating to Oracle 10g, we are getting the
problem with this. The problem is , i don'nt have the
access to Production environment, which is migrated
to Oracle 10g, we develop the code on Oracle 9i, and
will release to deploy on Oracle 10g. Develop in 9i and deploy to 10g! Do you really think that's a good setup? How about upgrading your development environment to match production.
update table1 set test_collection = null; - this
works fine in Oracle 9i ,
update table1 set test_collection = ''; - this works
fine in Oracle 9i ,
but in Oracle 10g ,
update table1 set test_collection = null; - this
works fine in Oracle 10g ,
update table1 set test_collection = ''; - this won'nt
works in Oracle 10g , Yes, I already understand what your issue is.
as you suggested, do we need to specify the
collection name while updating the collection type
field. in Oracle 10g, In Oracle 9i , it won'nt
required ?? Yes, this would be the correct way to do it.
Karthick,
because null is not same as ''
SQL> select * from dual where ''=null
2 /
no rows selectedErrrm, yes it is actually...
SQL> select 1 from dual where '' is null;
1
1
SQL>
... if you use the correct condition for checking nulls.

Oracle 10G New Feature........Part 1

Dear all,
from last couple of days i was very busy with my oracle 10g box,so i think this is right time to
share some intresting feature on 10g and some internal stuff with all of you.
Have a look :-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oracle 10g Memory and Storage Feature.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1.Automatic Memory Management.
2.Online Segment Shrink
3.Redolog Advisor, checkpointing
4.Multiple Temporary tablespace.
5.Automatic Workload Repository
6.Active Session History
7.Misc
a)Rename Tablespace
b)Bigfile tablespace
c)flushing buffer cache
8.ORACLE INTERNAL
a)undocumented parameter (_log_blocks_during_backup)
b)X$ view (x$messages view)
c)Internal Structure of Controlfile
1.Automatic memory management
================================
This feature reduce the overhead of oracle DBA.previously mostly time we need to set diff oracle SGA parameter for
better performance with the help of own experience,advice views and by monitoring the behaviour
of oracle database.
this was just time consuming activity.........
Now this feature makes easy life for oracle DBA.
Just set SGA_TARGET parameter and it automatically allocate memory to different SGA parameter.
it focus on DB_CACHE_SIZE
SHARED_POOL_SIZE
LARGE_POOL
JAVA_POOL
and automatically set it as
__db_cache_size
__shared_pool_size
__large_pool_size
__java_pool_size
check it in alert_log
MMAN(memory manager) process is new in 10g and this is responsible for sga tuning task.
it automatically increase and decrease the SGA parameters value as per the requirement.
Benefit:- Maximum utlization of available SGA memory.
2.Online Segment Shrink.
==========================
hmmmmm again a new feature by oracle to reduce the downtime.Now oracle mainly focus on availablity
thats why its always try to reduce the downtime by intrducing new feature.
in previous version ,reducing High water mark of table was possible by
Exp/imp
or
alter table move....cmd. but on these method tables was not available for normal use for long hrs if it has more data.
but in 10g with just few command we can reduce the HWmark of table.
this feature is available for ASSM tablespaces.
1.alter table emp enable row movement.
2.alter table emp shrink space.
the second cmd have two phases
first phase is to compact the segment and in this phase DML operations are allowed.
second phase(shrink phase)oracle shrink the HWM of table, DML operation will be blocked at that time for short duration.
So if want to shrink the HWM of table then we should use it with two diff command
first compact the segment and then shrink it on non-peak hrs.
alter table emp shrink space compact. (This cmd doesn't block the DML operation.)
and alter table emp shrink space. (This cmd should be on non-peak hrs.)
Benefit:- better full table scan.
3.Redolog Advisor and checkpointing
================================================================
now oracle will suggest the size of redo log file by V$INSTANCE_RECOVERY
SELECT OPTIMAL_LOGFILE_SIZE
FROM V$INSTANCE_RECOVERY
this value is influence with the value of FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET .
Checkpointing
Automatic checkpointing will be enable after setting FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET to non-zero value.
4.Multiple Temporary tablespace.
==================================
Now we can manage multiple temp tablespace under one group.
we can create a tablespace group implicitly when we include the TABLESPACE GROUP clause in the CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE or ALTER TABLESPACE statement and the specified tablespace group does not currently exist.
For example, if group1 is not exists,then the following statements create this groups with new tablespace
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE temp1 TEMPFILE '/u02/oracle/data/temp01.dbf'
SIZE 50M
TABLESPACE GROUP group1;
--Add Existing temp tablespace into group by
alter tablespace temp2 tablespace group group1.
--we can also assign the temp tablespace group on database level as default temp tablespace.
ALTER DATABASE <db name> DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE group1;
benefit:- Better I/O
One sql can use more then one temp tablespace
5.AWR(Automatic Workload Repository):-
================================== AWR is built in Repository and Central point of Oracle 10g.Oracle self managing activities
is fully dependent on AWR.by default after 1 hr, oracle capure all database uses information and store in AWR with the help of
MMON process.we called it Memory monitor process.and all these information are kept upto 7 days(default) and after that it automatically purge.
we can generate a AWR report by
SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt
Just like statspack report but its a advance and diff version of statspack,it provide more information of Database as well as OS.
it show report in Html and Text format.
we can also take manually snapshot for AWR by
BEGIN
DBMS_WORKLOAD_REPOSITORY.CREATE_SNAPSHOT ();
END;
**The STATISTICS_LEVEL initialization parameter must be set to the TYPICAL or ALL to enable the Automatic Workload Repository.

Benefit:- Now DBA have more free time to play games.....................:-)
Advance version of statspack
more DB and OS information with self managing capabilty
New Automatic alert and database advisor with the help of AWR.
6.Active Session History:-
==========================
V$active_session_history is view that contain the recent session history.
the memory for ASH is comes from SGA and it can't more then 5% of Shared pool.
So we can get latest and active session report from v$active_session_history view and also get histortical data of
of session from DBA_HIST_ACTIVE_SESS_HISTORY.
v$active_session_history include some imp column like:-
~SQL identifier of SQL statement
~Object number, file number, and block number
~Wait event identifier and parameters
~Session identifier and session serial number
~Module and action name
~Client identifier of the session
7.Misc:-
========
Rename Tablespace:-
=================
in 10g,we can even rename a tablespace by
alter tablespace <tb_name> rename to <tb_name_new>;
This command will update the controlfile,data dictionary and datafile header,but dbf filename will be same.
**we can't rename system and sysaux tablespace.
Bigfile tablespace:-
====================
Bigfile tablespace contain only one datafile.
A bigfile tablespace with 8K blocks can contain a 32 terabyte datafile.
Bigfile tablespaces are supported only for locally managed tablespaces with automatic segment-space management.
we can take the advantage of bigfile tablespace when we are using ASM or other logical volume with RAID.
without ASM or RAID ,it gives poor response.
syntax:-
CREATE BIGFILE TABLESPACE bigtbs
Flushing Buffer Cache:-
======================
This option is same as flushing the shared pool,but only available with 10g.
but i don't know, whats the use of this command in prod database......
anyway we can check and try it on test server for tuning n testing some query etc....
SQL> alter system flush buffer_cache;
System altered.
++++++++++++++++++
8.Oracle Internal
++++++++++++++++++
Here is some stuff that is not related with 10g but have some intresting things.
a)undocumented parameter "_log_blocks_during_backup"
++++++++++++++++++++++++
as we know that oracle has generate more redo logs during hotbackup mode because
oracle has to maintain the a complete copy of block into redolog due to split block.
we can also change this behaviour by setting this parameter to False.
If Oracle block size equals the operating system block size.thus reducing the amount of redo generated
during a hot backup.
WITHOUT ORACLE SUPPORT DON'T SET IT ON PROD DATABASE.THIS DOCUMENT IS JUST FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSE.
b)some X$ views (X$messages)
++++++++++++++++
if you are intresting in oracle internal architecture then x$ view is right place for getting some intresting things.
X$messages :-it show all the actions that a background process do.
select * from x$messages;
like:-
lock memory at startup MMAN
Memory Management MMAN
Handle sga_target resize MMAN
Reset advisory pool when advisory turned ON MMAN
Complete deferred initialization of components MMAN
lock memory timeout action MMAN
tune undo retention MMNL
MMNL Periodic MQL Selector MMNL
ASH Sampler (KEWA) MMNL
MMON SWRF Raw Metrics Capture MMNL
reload failed KSPD callbacks MMON
SGA memory tuning MMON
background recovery area alert action MMON
Flashback Marker MMON
tablespace alert monitor MMON
Open/close flashback thread RVWR
RVWR IO's RVWR
kfcl instance recovery SMON
c)Internal Structure of Controlfile
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The contents of the current controlfile can be dumped in text form.
Dump Level Dump Contains
1 only the file header
2 just the file header, the database info record, and checkpoint progress records
3 all record types, but just the earliest and latest records for circular reuse record types
4 as above, but includes the 4 most recent records for circular reuse record types
5+ as above, but the number of circular reuse records included doubles with each level
the session must be connected AS SYSDBA
alter session set events 'immediate trace name controlf level 5';
This dump show lots of intresting information.
it also show rman recordes if we used this controlfile in rman backup.

Error message when installing Oracle 10g on Windows XP Professional

Hello,
I need help installing oracle 10g database. When I attempt to run the installation from the setup.exe icon, I get a message that says
"Error in writing to directory C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temp\OraInstall2007-04-29_01-19-29PM. Please ensure this directory is writable and has atleast 45Mb of disk space. Installation cannot continue."
When I try to open the installation from the Autorun icon, it points to an innability to find setup.exe and when I go back to Setup.exe, it gives me the above error. Everytime I try to run the installation and it fails, the installation leaves a folder in my Temp folder with the above format. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I do have administrative privilege on my computer and I have plenty of space. I have 80gb of free space. What do I do to successfully install the software without incurring those messages I displayed in my first thread?

I am trying to face some problem to install oracle 10g database on windows 2003 server with service pack 2. Once I start to installation it give me an error "Error in writing to directory 'c:\documents and settings\administrator\local settings\temp\orainstall2004xxx'. Please ensure that this directory is writable and has at least 45MB of disk space. Installation cannot continue"
I double-insured that there is enough disk-space and I am also in the Administrators-Group.
Please guide me for the above problem although I have done oracle 9i database installation with the same configuration.

The Oracle Installation log is as follwoed:
Using paramFile: /home/MyData/51031676/database/install/oraparam.ini
Checking installer requirements...
Checking operating system version: must be redhat-3, SuSE-9, redhat-4, UnitedLinux-1.0, asianux-1, asianux-2 or SuSE-10
                                      Passed
All installer requirements met.
The commandline for unzip:
/home/MyData/51031676/database/install/unzip -qqq ../stage/Components/oracle.swd.jre/1.4.2.0.8
/1/DataFiles/\*.jar -d /tmp/OraInstall2009-04-22_03-59-38PM
I have set DISPLAY variable in this way before starting Installation:
DISPLAY=$HOSTNAME:0.0
export DISPLAY
I tried to search the solution over the internet for this kind of problem, but i am not able to find its solution. Even i tried to start the Orale installation using this parameter: ./runInstaller ignoreSysPrereqs, but still it is giving the same unexpected error.
I have a doubt on File/Directory permissions which are created for Installation in /tmp. The umask setiing of the system is 0022.
Please, help me for this issue.
Thanks & Regards,

Netweaver 2004s installation problem on Windows: Oracle 10G

Hi Friends,
I would like to install Netweaver 2004S(with usage types AS ABAP, AS JAVA, BI, BI JAVA, EP & DI) on a server which has Windows 2003 server OS running on it.
The server has 6GB RAM and has 5GB of free space on C: and a free sapce of 60GB on H: & 50GB on I: respectively.The database that is to be used is Oracle 10g.
Do I need to install first SAP solution manger 4.0 on this or Can i proceed with Netweaver 2004 S installation???
I am installing a central system.
First I tried installing SAP solution manger 4.0 on this system and it went successfully. Now when i am installing Netweaver 2004s on the same machine, during installation I am asked whether to "install a MCOD or create a new database for this installation".
I chose Install MCOD and proceeded further with Installation. But my installation is taking a lot of time while executing the service :"Creating database schema". The message which i get on status bar is " Removing schema user SAPSR3" and the status remains the same.
Have any of you faced this problem ? Please let me know how you have proceeded further.
Before starting the installation one of the prerequisites " SWAP SPACE VALUES" for installation was not satisfied by my system and even then i proceeded with the installation.
Is it because of this SWAP space problem , my intsallation is strcuk?? or what could be the reason fo this?
Thanks
Diwakar

Hello Diwakar,
If you are just installing NW2004s then it is not mandatory to install Solution manager.
To increase the swap space --
Right click my on computer ->Select Properties -> Click Advanced Tab ->Click Settings (performance) -> Select Advanced Tab -> In virtual memory -> Change
you canIncrease swap space/page file here.
Do not install the system as MCOD, make the seperate database.
Do revert for further doubt.
Best Regards,
Sachin.
