Sql to find check Percent of Rollback Segment Used?

I have the following queries to find information about rollback segments.
I want the sql to find % of rollback segment used.
--rollsegs.sql
select SEGMENT_NAME, OWNER, TABLESPACE_NAME, SEGMENT_ID, status
from dba_rollback_segs order by segment_name;
select name, extents, writes, xacts, gets,waits, shrinks, aveactive, status
from v$rollname n, v$rollstat s
where n.usn = s.usn
order by name;
--rolbstat.sql
select name, rssize, hwmsize "High", optsize "Opt", wraps, extends, shrinks,
aveshrink "Aveshr", aveactive "Aveact"
from v$rollname n, v$rollstat s
where n.usn = s.usn
order by name;
set numformat 999999990;

DrBurgs, there was a time when your session was assigned a rollback segment that rollback segment held all the updates performed by your session but by Oracle version 8.1 every transaction executed by your session could be assigned to a different rollback segment.
So every 100,000 or whatever value of N use choose as your commit point could result in a different rollback segment being used. You can use v$rollstat and v$transaction to monitor rollback segment usage while the job is running.
You stated that you had one rollback segment for every tablespace. There is no relation in Oracle between the number of tablespace and the number of rollback segments you should have.
You should choose the number of rollback segments to create based on the expected user load and how large a transaction you need to be able to support. For manually defined rollback segments set the initial extent size and the next extent size equal with pctincrease = 0. Then set optimal to the size you would like each rollback segment to be. This size should be large enough that shrinks do not happen often but small enough that one segment that expands will not result in other rollback segments being able to extend. By using uniform extent size you guarentee that every free extent is usable by any other rollback segment that needs to extend.
With a true warehouse you probably have very little update compared to your select load and the updates are probably load jobs. In this case you may need very few, very large rollback segments to handle the load.

  • Checking for existing Rollback Segments

    Hello you all,
    Is there a possibility to check for existing rollback segments within procedures?
    Thanks
    Hans

    Hello
    If you just want to be able to find out what rollback segments there are, you can query dba_rollback_segs, which will give you all sorts of info about rollback segments.
    Is that what you need or is it more involved?

  • Rollback segments using UNDO Tablespace?

    First, I created a database for a vendor with an Undo Tablespace UNDOTBS. Then the vendor requested me to create rollback segments instead. So I created a new tablespace RBSTBS just to hold these segments. When I tried to create the rollback segment using the newly created tablespace RBSTBS, it complained that I am not allowed to use non-system tablespaces.
    So instead, I used the Undo tablespace UNDOTBS to hold the rollback segment. It worked.
    Am I really allowed to use the UNDO tablespace to hold rollback segments? Can't I use normal tablespaces for rollback segments?
    Another thing, the vendor wanted me to create rollback segments of 200MB each. Where do I set this while creating the rollback segment? Is this the INITIAL, NEXT, or OPTIMAL size?
    I know that Oracle recommends using UNDO rather than rollback segments. Is there any advantage in using traditional rollback segments?
    Thanks for any help!

    Advantage with rollback segment is you can force your transaction to use any specific rollback segment, where as with undo you don't have any control. Oracle does it for us.

  • Different rollback segment used. why?

    Hi. I am trying to use rollback segment RB6 in a delete process in a stored procedure using SET TRANSACTION USE ROLLBACK SEGMENT RB6;
    However, when the procedure is called and performed, an error is thrown:
    ORA-01562: failed to extend rollback segment number 2
    ORA-01650: unable to extend rollback segment RB2 by 128 in tablespace my_table_space
    If you notice, the error refers to segment RB2. I have not set RB2 as a rollback segment in this procedure. How is it possible? I am using RB6 and now it's throwing an error regarding RB2? Please help. Thanks.

    It depends on where in the code you SET TRANSACTION, when you call the procedure, where delete transaction starts and where it ends. i.e does the delete part of the code run within that same windows?
    The database can decide which rollback segment to use for different transactions.
    BTW - What is your oracle release?

  • Creating rollback segments using PUBLIC

    One of our dba's dropped and recreated the 6 rollback segments ( 8i ) but didnt use the PUBLIC option. When the server was rebooted they came up as offline. Another dba did the same but used the PUBLIC option and they are now fine.
    I have looked through the ORacle docs on creating rollback segments and it doesnt seem to say that using the PUBLIC option is essential . I seems to think that u need to do this if using parallel server option.
    So what is the real truth ?

  • How to find out rollback segment offile or online for pertcular schema????

    how to find rollbacksegment is online or ofline and space information regarding rollbacksegment?
    this is freshely installed 11.5.10.2. defultly how much free space we have????????//
    regards
    dba

    Default rollback segments are always online on database startup.
    if you create any new rollback segments then they will be offline by default during startup.
    for making newly created rollback segments online by default edit your init_sid.ora file and add the name of rollback segment in rollback_segment parameter.
    BTW,why are you concerned about rollback segments,use undo tablespace.

    As you see we forced the session to use a huge RBS created for the purpose, but strangely after a long while the query fails with a RBS too small failure due to another RBS, not the one specified.
    Is there any chance the UNION or any other component of the query is implicitly opening a new transaction with a different RBS associated?
    Any chance to force the same RBS specified explicitly?
    Thanks!

By the time your select reaches to fetch rows modified by that other session rollback extents in rollback segment used by that other session were reused. You will get snapshot too old.

  • How to check/find the size of current ROLLBACK segment in oracle 10g

    How to check/find the size of current ROLLBACK segment in oracle 10g ? Kindly help

    A rollback segment name like "_SYSSMU231$" is used when you have Automatic Undo Management enabled.
    The only relevant parameters are :
    1. UNDO_MANAGEMENT=AUTO
    2. UNDO_RETENTION=n minutes ==> this is what everyone should be interested in
    3. The sizes of the Undo Tablespace datafiles and whether AUTOEXTEND is ON or OFF
    No one should be interested in the size of a single undo segment when Automatic Undo Management is enabled.
    Possible causes of ORA-01555 errors in Automatic Undo Management
    a. UNDO_RETENTION is too low
    b. Undo tablespace is too small

    I guess there must be some issue with the database being used, the archive mode or the UNDO segments. As a workaround, you can remove the following command from install.sql and run the sql script again.

    It makes sense that I get the error because it is the tablespace that I have been working with, adding data. Is my logic correct? How does one restore a tablespace if it has rollback segments active? Can someone look to make sure I am declaring the rollback segments appropriately?

    Thank you for the link - very helpful.
    So would a more appropriate scheme be:
    Create a tablespace
    Create rollback segments
    Put them online
    enter their names in the ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS= segment(s)
    I havent read everything, so you may say go look at the link again, but a second question. If you are managing the extent locally, does it not use a rollback segments, or is it using system, or is it actually creating rollback segments for itself within the context of the local management?
    In my above scenario, I would have to take my rollback segment offline as well as the tablespace.

  • Rollback segment problem

    Hello:
    I'm using oracle 8 database and I have a process that generates small transactions (and they're really small), usually this process is executed from 2 or 3 different workstations at the same time, but they don't use the same data sets. The frequency of execution of the small transaction is 10 or 12 a second for each workstation. Each time the process is executed I can count near 6000 transactions, and I always have 2 o 3 of them arising "ORA-01562: failed to extend rollback segment number n" error. Since the transaction uses a small space of the rollback segment I can't find an explanation to this behavior. Is this related to the time between transaction and the freeing of the unused rollback segment ? I would really appreciate if somebody could help me!!!
    Thanks in advance, Javier Petrozzi

    It appears to me that some of the transactions remain open for quite some time and the new transactions are not able to obtain an extent for the rollback segment.
    The following query gives some useful information.
      1  select s.sid, s.username, r.name "SEGMENT NAME"
      2  from v$session s, v$transaction t, v$rollname r
