Sysaux tablespace issue

hi,
I ve upgraded an database for 9i to 10g. The upgrade was sucessfull and the Db was in normal usage. Due to some functionality testing the database was restored to a state from the backup taken after upgrade. But while restoring the database i forgot to include the path of the datafile of sysaux tablespace in the control file re-creation script.
I didnt notice this issue for long time until i realised the mistake made by me.
I found in the alert logs which showed errors such as
ORA-01157: cannot identify/lock data file 124 - see DBWR trace file
ORA-01110: data file 124: '/oracle/ora/dbs/MISSING00141'
ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status
since the path of the sysaux tablespace was not referred in the script i thought of referring it now and i issued the following command
alter tablespace sysaux add datafile '<path>/sysaux01.dbf' reuse;
i issed this as the datafile was already present and i thought of jus reuing it again.
But what had happened is this datafile had been added as an additional datafile for the sysaux tablespace,which means the sysaux is still referring '/oracle/ora/dbs/MISSING00141' as one of the datafile.
but one important thing is that there isnt any such datafile ie '/oracle/ora/dbs/MISSING00141' when i checked inside the dbs folder.
The path is getting referred as part of the sysaux tablespace but its physical location is not found.
So i did took this datafile offlinedrop issuing
alter database datafile '/oracle/ora/dbs/MISSING00141' ofline drop
but the problem i m facing now is the AWR is not opening up and it throw error stating first datafile of sysaux tablespace '/oracle/ora/dbs/MISSING00141' not found.
ORA-00376: file 124 cannot be read at this time
ORA-01110: data file 141: '/oracle/ora/dbs/MISSING00141'
ORA-06512: at line 21.
any solution for solving the problem would be appreciated
thanks,

i m able to start up the database normally....there isnt any errors while starting the DB.These errors are encountered in alert log file and user trace files.As as result AWR is not opening.

Hi, I've got exactly the same problem up to the point where I try to offline drop the MISSING0009 datafile.
The command says it completed OK but the phantom datafile does not go and still reports that it's there in dba_data_files, althoguh the online_status is RECOVER, the status is ONLINE.
I'm not sure how to get rid of the entry if the offline drop command doesnt work. I've tried recreating the control file and deleting the entry for this datafile too but somehow it returned after that too!
I''m also not sure what to do when I do get rid of it - since I cant recover the old sysaux01.dbf datafile since it's not consistent with the database since there has been a week inbetween and we're not running archivelogging.
I would assume that all the stuff usually put in the SYSAUX tablespace is therefore lost, but I dont think we use anything that normally puts stuff in there, I've only noticed this since I was trying to install em.
Do I have to rebuild the database from scratch? Or any ideas on how I can recover the situation? Can I do something like startup upgrade and re-run the upgrade scripts which will put their stuff back into sysaux....?
Many thanks for ideas
Rob

Issue with SYSAUX tablespace.

Without backup and any old archivelog(more then last five days),IN RAC environment we are trying to recover one of datafile of our SYSAUX tablespace which is in RECOVER state.
sysaux tablespace having two datafile,while making online to second datafile it's asking for last month archivelogs which we dont have And while making online to SYSAUX tablespace it's giving error that one of your database datafile recquire recovery.
ORA-00279: change 195638767 generated at 08/10/2009 14:17:27 needed for thread 1 while recovering by auto

Logical corruption found in the sysaux tablespace

Dear All:
We lately see the logical corruption error when running dbverify command which shows the block corruption. It is always on the the sysaux tablespace. The database is 11g and platform is Linux.
we get the error like:error backing up file 2 block xxxx: logical corruption and this comes to alert.log out of the automated maintenance job like sqltunning advisor running during maintenance window.
Now As far as I know,we can't drop or rename the sysaux tablespace. there is a startup migrate option to drop the SYSAUX but it does not work due to the presence of domain indexes. you may run the rman block media recovery but it ends with not fixing since rman backups are more of physical than maintain the logical integrity.
Any help, advise, suggestion will be highly appreciated.

If you let this corruption there then you are likely to face a big issue that will compromise database availability sooner or later. The sysaux is a critical tablespace, so you must proceed with caution.
Make sure you have a valid backup and don't do any thing unless you are sure about what you are doing and you have a fall back procedure.
if you still have a valid backup then you can use rman to perform a db block level recovery, this will help you in fixing the block. Otherwise try to restore and recover the sysaux. In case you cannot fix the block by refreshing the sysaux tablespace then I suggest you to create a new database and use aTransportable Tablespace technique to migrate all tablespaces from your current database to the new one and get rid of this database.

ORA-01578: ORACLE data block corrupted on tables in sysaux tablespace

Dear Experts,
From the alert log file we noticed data block corruptions on one of our datafiles. After further investigation, we realized that the corruptions were on 3 of the AWR related tables in the SYSAUX tablespace:
1. WRH$_LIBRARYCACHE
2. WRH$_TEMPSTATXS
3. WRI$_ALERT_OUTSTANDING
The bad news is that we may not have a valid rman backup to do the recovery due to the retention policy - RECOVERY WINDOW OF 2 DAYS. Since this is a development database with limited monitoring, we did not discover the corruption until 6 days later. The issue happened about 6 days ago (about Christmas time).
So, what are our recovery options? Can someone advice? We are thinking about drop and recreate the 3 affected v$WR* tables, but not quite sure about the impact to the system if we drop and recreate the 3 objects. Did someone experience this type of recovery. If you did, what are your approaches?
We are running oracle 10.2.0.3 version.
I greatly appreciate your input and suggestion. Thanks!!!

as long as you have a backup of ur database before christmas, you can use the " MAXDAYS " cmd to get ur backup working so long as you have not used delete obsolote....had a same sistuation....where i had a backup and trying to restore it ...kept saying no valid backup...after going thru some stuff...found the MAXDAYS cmd to use my backup...here is an example ...

Sysaux tablespace corrupted.

Hi,
Sysaux tablepace corrupted. when recover sysaux tablespace it is asking archfiles. but archfiles is expired. how to overcome from this issue? can we recreate sysaux tablespace
Thanks

Hi user2017273
Kindly explain what do you mean of sysaux tablespace corruption, How you have identified this issue.
there are two type of corruption > Physical and Logical
are you able to identified the corruption is in which segment or is this in any free segment. if this is in free segment then you need not to worry. and if corruption is in any segment then what is the segment type > Table, Index or LOB....
kindly give your finding with above plan, so that i can help to recover/recreate your sysaux tablespace.
Krishna,
I am not sure that for a tablespace, there is anything like a logical corruption. That said, whether its a logical or physical corruption, since its a tablespace which is meant for the db's internal tables and since the OP doesn't have any archive logs to recover it and he is on a patched system, its better than he should work with OSS. Because without archivelogs, any kind of corruption recovery would be impossible and logical corruption is not something that I have seen a lot. So going to support would be the best thing to do to avoid further complexities IMO.

How to release space of SYSAUX tablespace

Hi,
I am now using htmldb 2.0 and created tens of tables in one schema. Several tables are stored in tablespace SYSAUX. Since now I am trying to store a big file to the table(1GB), I found the tablespace grows pretty fast and I have to extend the size. The odd thing is when I delete that file from my table, SYSAUX tablespace seems not release any room and when I insert the big file again into the table, SYSAUX grows again. How can I release the space then? I can't image that why it can't release any room. I also check the occupants of SYSAUX and found one occupant called "other" takes over 90% of space. I tried to move it out of SYSAUX, it doesn't work. What do "other" do actually? I got completely lost. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

System and sysaux tablespace

hi,
can anyone tell me whata system and sysaux tablespace contains, and how to manage them.

The system tablespace
The system tablespace is always available when a database is open (it cannot be taken offline).
The system tablespace stores the data dictionary (or their base tables, respectively).
The sysaux tablespace
The sysaux tablespace is new with Oracle 10g. It is used to store database components that were stored in the system tablespace in prior releases of the database.
Also, the tablespaces that were needed for RMAN's recovery catalog, for Ultra Search, for Data Mining, for XDP and for OLAP are going to sysaux with 10g.
Additionally, it is the place where automatic workload repository stores its information.
The SYSAUX tablespace was installed as an auxiliary tablespace to the SYSTEM tablespace when you created your database. Some database components that formerly created and used separate tablespaces now occupy the SYSAUX tablespace.
If the SYSAUX tablespace becomes unavailable, core database functionality will remain operational. The database features that use the SYSAUX tablespace could fail, or function with limited capability.

What is the use of SYSAUX Tablespace in Oracle 10G

Dear Experts,
Please Tell me What is the use of SYSAUX Tablespace in Oracle 10G Because
during Web Load Testing It is going to increase countinuosly.Although i am not using this with any tables.
How Can I find out the what is gong on in this.
Can I Remove this tablesspace and other non using Schemas like FLOWS_020100,MDSYS,OUTLN,DIP and TSMSYS etc.

What is SYSAUX?
The SYSAUX tablespace provides storage of non-sys-related tables and indexes that traditionally were placed in the SYSTEM tablespace. For example, the tables and indexes that were previously owned by the system user can now be specified for a SYSAUX tablespace. Unfortunately, Oracle still places the SCOTT schema and the other demonstration schemas in the SYSTEM tablespace. Go figure.
The SYSAUX tablespace is specified with the CREATE DATABASE command. This is demonstrated in the example database creation script in Figure 1.1.

Oracle10g sysaux
With the new SYSAUX tablespace, Oracle comes closer to providing all the needed tablespaces for a truly OFA-compliant database right out of the box. With just one CREATE DATABASE command we can specify the SYSTEM tablespace, the TEMPORARY tablespace, the AUXSYS tablespace, the default UNDO tablespace, and the redo logs.
Of course, with the Oracle Managed Files option you can create an entire database with a single command, but the database created is not suitable for production use and is not OFA-compliant.
The SYSAUX tablespace is required in all new 10g databases. Only the SYSAUX tablespace datafile location is specified. Oracle specifies the remainder of the tablespace properties including:
online
permanent

If a datafile is specified for the SYSTEM tablespace, then one must be specified for the SYSAUX tablespace as well. If one is not specified, then the CREATE DATABASE command will fail. The only exception is for an Oracle Managed File system.
During any update of a database to Oracle Database 10g, a SYSAUX tablespace must be created or the upgrade will fail. The SYSAUX tablespace has the same security profile as the SYSTEM tablespace. However, loss of the SYSAUX tablespace will not result in a database crash, only the functional loss of the schemas it contains.
Can I drop SysAux?

TABLESPACE Issue with DEV_SOAINFRA

Hi,
I am getting the following error while using the function ora:readBinaryFromFile
ORA-01691: unable to extend lob segment DEV_SOAINFRA.SYS_LOB0000147944C00002$$ by 8192 in tablespace DEV_SOAINFRA.
I know that automatic extending of DEV_SOAINFRA tablespace in em or purging of old instance data will resolve the issue, but is there any other way where I can get rid of storing instance data in SOAINFRA. This is because, I get large amount of size files through FTP adapter and they are getting into dehydration store. Is there any way I can get rid of this so that I wont be storing this data.

Thanks for your response,
1. in Step 1 i am using FTP adapter for copying from source directory to target directory in a single invoke ( i.e. file gets copied from remote location A to local location A) in a single invoke and I have used the following type in <interaction-spec className="oracle.tip.adapter.ftp.outbound.FTPIoInteractionSpec"> jca file.
2. After this I am invoking an webservice adapter which takes the files from local location to remote location B. The elements inside the WSDL are filename, filepath and file content. For file content i am using ora:readBinaryfromfile(). Also, I attached MTOM policy for WS adapter. Everything is working fine, but i am getting tablespace issue frequently as the attachments are getting stored in Attachment table of SOAINFRA.
Thanks,

UNDOTBS1 and SYSAUX Tablespace Filename Mismatch in Oracle 11g XE

Hi,
We have installed Oracle 11g XE 32 bit on Windows and found that Tablespace name and filenames are mismatched for UNDOTBS1, SYSAUX.
If you run following query:
SELECT TABLESPACE_NAME, FILE_NAME FROM DBA_DATA_FILES; You will get below output:
TABLESPACE_NAME                    FILE_NAME
============================================================================
USERS                C:\ORACLE\ORACLE11GXE\APP\ORACLE\ORADATA\XE\USERS.DBF
UNDOTBS1           C:\ORACLE\ORACLE11GXE\APP\ORACLE\ORADATA\XE\SYSAUX.DBF
SYSAUX                C:\ORACLE\ORACLE11GXE\APP\ORACLE\ORADATA\XE\UNDOTBS1.DBF
SYSTEM                C:\ORACLE\ORACLE11GXE\APP\ORACLE\ORADATA\XE\SYSTEM.DBFNotice the difference between UNDOTBS1 and SYSAUX.
UNDOTBS1 tablespace has filename SYSAUX.DBF while
SYSAUX tablespace has filename UNDOTBS1.DBF
Is this a bug or just a wrong name mapping?
Will this affects the internal behavior of tablespace as well for undo tablespace and APEX Installation?
Regards,
Sohil Bhavsar.

Error: ORA-03297 ... related to this mismatch of UNDOTBS1 with SYSAUXActually its related to trying to resize a file smaller than the existing extents in use, so yes, restores aren't the only place that could cause confusion from the "incorrect" datafile names.
Fixing it could be done in one pass if you don't mind adjusting filenames so they don't clash, i.e. shut down your database instance and move the files at the OS, startup mount and rename the files in the database.
Don't use the services applet, the instance has to be shutdown with sqlplus, leave the database service running. If you try to open the database with OS files renamed but not corrected in the instance, the database won't open if there are troubles with the undo datafile.

How to retrieve old statistics backed up in SYSAUX tablespace.

Hi, Folks
From 10g onward, Oracle stores statistics collected previously when new statistics is gathered. Old statistics can be queryed via dba_tab_stats_history. but dba_tab_stats_history view doesn't show values like histogram, rows, min, and max. I would like to compare old statistics with new ones. Is there any way to retrieve previous statistics data backed up in SYSAUX tablespace?

If it is stored you can query it. The trick is knowing where it is stored and without specific information about what you are looking for there's not much I can do other than refer you to tables whose names begin with the prefix 'WRH.''
Try this for starters:
select table_name from dba_tables where table_name like 'WRH%STAT%';

SYSAUX Tablespace Shrinnk

Our SYSAUX tablespae has been grown up to 26 GB. When I had checked the v$sysaux_occupants, SYSMAN was occupying 24 GB, so I reconfigured the DB control and now SYSAUX tablespace current usage is only 937MB out of 26GB. Now I want to reclaim this 25 GB of space.
Plese let me know the steps to reclaim the space from SYSAUX tablespace.?

Hi, you have to use Segment Advisor via OEM or PL/SQL(dbms_advisor) packages can reclaim wasted space.
Also you can define all objects (tables and indexes) and do "alter table <tablename> shrink cascade".
