Temporary tablespace in oracle 8i

hi,
i am working in oracle 8.1.7.4.0.i am creating a temporary tablespace.
After creating the temp tablespace i am going to assign it as default temporary tablespace.
alter database default temporary tablespace <tbs-name>;
but its showing error...as
ora-02231 - missing or invalid option to alter database,
how to assign the default temporary tablespace in this oracle version.
Rgds...

You can not set the temporary tablespace at the database level as default temporary tablespace in Oracle 8i. From Oracle 9i onwards, you can create and assign the temporary tablespace at the database level.
Only possible way in Oracle 8i is at the user level.
i.e.
SQL> alter user scott default tablespace TEMP;

  • Resizing temporary tablespace in oracle 8i

    Please,
    I some questions on oracle 8i.
    1. how do I know on oracle 8i if the tablespace X is the temporary tablespace?
    2. I have someone that increase the size of the temporary tablespace, so I have to decrease it to its normal size, my question is when I do the following command.
    alter database tempfile '/u02/oradata/TESTDB/temp01.dbf' resize 250M;
    alter database tempfile '/u02/oradata/TESTDB/temp01.dbf' resize 250M
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-03297: file contains used data beyond requested RESIZE value
    Does someone show me how to solve this issue?
    Thanks

    you can use the below sqls
    sql>SELECT tablespace_name, extent_size, total_extents, used_extents,
    free_extents, max_used_size FROM v$sort_segment;
    From the output of the v$sort_segment query:
    extent_size      : size of one extent, in number of Oracle blocks
    total_extents     : total number of extents in the segment (free or in use)
    used_extents      : total number of extents currently in use
    free_extents      : total number of extents currently marked as free
    max_used_size: maximum number of extents ever needed by an operation (like a sort):
    sql> SELECT s.username, u.tablespace, u.contents, u.extents, u.blocks FROM v$session s,
    v$sort_usage u WHERE s.saddr=u.session_addr;
    SQL> select s.username, s.sid, u.tablespace, u.contents, u.segtype,

  • Temporary tablespace/OS-Oracle DB/Redo change vector

    At minimum, this tablespace should be as large as the
    largest index that will be created, plus 10% for
    overhead. Can anyone please throw more light on this . Why is this .Is this a hard and fast rule and left to the discretion of the DBA?
    This is just a general question.How big of an impact can an operating system have on an oracle database . I mean with respect to everything . Performance/security etc. Unix vs Windows . I do know that on a Unix based system it will be more better to have oracle installed. But isn't there anything that can be done to have the same efffect in every aspect oracle for an database on a windows machine ?
    Responses are appreciated!
    A redo record consists of
    1.redo record header
    2.one or more change vectors
    What is this change vector.This vwent over my head.Can anyone please elaborate on this.
    null
    null

    Within the limits of the Windows operating system, sure.
    Realistically, most organizations use Unix for their large databases because
    - when they made the decision about what operating system to use a decade (or more) ago, Windows was nowhere near enterprise ready
    - given the human capital they have invested in Unix, there would be no point to moving to Windows
    - there are many fewer high-quality Windows admins and Oracle DBAs with substantial Windows skills than Unix admins and Oracle DBAs with Unix experience
    There is plenty that can be done to run a large Oracle database on a Windows machine successfully. Unfortunately, doing all these things tends to be harder on Windows, finding people knowledgable enough to do them properly tends to be hard, and relatively few organizations are invested enough in Windows to bother. That's changing over time, though-- there are a lot more Oracle databases on Windows today than there were 5 years ago.

  • Temporary tablespace size

    Hi,
    I have a doubt regarding temporary tablespace. Oracle 9.2.0.5
    When I create the default tablespace temp I see it growing and growing during some days until it reaches the maximum size and then it give the error ORA-01652: unable to extend temp segment by 128 in tablespace TEMP
    but monitoring the v$sort_segment I see one or 2 users logged and using the temp.
    So my doubt is: what I have to do to find the BEST size for my temp tablespace. which queries is the recomended one to see the temp segments being used ?
    Thank you

    See http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96521/tspaces.htm#9566
    To improve the concurrence of multiple sort operations, reduce their overhead, or avoid Oracle space management operations altogether, create temporary tablespaces. A temporary tablespace can be shared by multiple users and can be assigned to users with the CREATE USER statement when you create users in the database.
    Within a temporary tablespace, all sort operations for a given instance and tablespace share a single sort segment. Sort segments exist for every instance that performs sort operations within a given tablespace. The sort segment is created by the first statement that uses a temporary tablespace for sorting, after startup, and is released only at shutdown. An extent cannot be shared by multiple transactions.
    You can view the allocation and deallocation of space in a temporary tablespace sort segment using the V$SORT_SEGMENT view. The V$TEMPSEG_USAGE view identifies the current sort users in those segments.

  • Default temporary tablespace in 8i

    Hi
    is it possible to change the default temporary tablespace in oracle 8.1.6
    SQL> Create temporary tablespace temp1 tempifle '/oradata/temp01' size 2000m;
    SQ>alter database default temporary tablespace temp1; this shows invalid option for alter database

    As far as I remember, there wasn't a default temporarary tablespace at the database level before 9i.
    You need to define it at the user level.

  • Oracle 8.0 - how to identify temporary tablespace using dba v$ views

    Hello experts,
    can someone tell me how can I query a v$ or dba_ view to identify which are the temporary tablespace in a 8.0.5 Oracle database?
    Thx in advance.

    8.0 did not have the concept of tempfiles.
    However, a Tablespace could be created as a Temporary tablespace (still using "normal" datafiles) with CREATE/ALTER TABLESPACE tablespacename TEMPORAR.
    Meaning : You can't query DBA_TEMP_FILES or V$TEMPFILEs. You have to query DBA_USERS to identify the designated Temporary Tablespace(s) and then query DBA_TABLESPACES for the storage parameters and then query DBA_DATA_FILES for the files.
    You can also query DBA_TABLESPACES for CONTENTS='TEMPORARY' and then query DBA_DATA_FILES.

  • Temporary tablespace Oracle 8i

    Hi,
    We are having oracle 8i database on windows OS.
    Now, the existing TEMP TS in our database is dictionary managed.
    So, can i drop the existing TEMP TS and create a new one with locally managed ?
    if i create new TEMP TS (locally managed) then, should i keep temp datafiles autoextend ON or OFF ? which is advisable ?
    doing so, will it help in improving the performance of the database upto some level ?
    With regards

    Hi,
    I have dropped the exiting TEMP (dictionary managed) TS but getting error when i am trying to create a new one .i.e. locally managed
    Storage parameters of existing TEMP TS (dictionary) that i dropped :-
    CREATE TABLESPACE TEMP DATAFILE

    'D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\EITXIS\temp02.dbf' SIZE 1024M AUTOEXTEND OFF
    EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL UNIFORM SIZE 1M;
    But when i am trying to create the new TEMP TS (locally managed) i get the below error :-
    ORA-03214: File Size specified is smaller than minimum requrired
    where i have done mistake ?
    Its ok now ...... TEMP TS created with locally managed, but does new storage parameters for TEMP TS (locally), mentioned above are proper now ?

  • Amount of temporary tablespace size used for index rebuild

    Hi All,
    I want to know approximate amount of temporary tablespace size used for index rebuild. I need this information to avoid the insufficient temporary tablespace error during the huge index rebuild.
    Is there a query or procedure to find it out.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    While creating the index, the temporary segment is created in the permanent tablespace. So permanent tablespace must have sufficient space.

  • How do i know if my query using  SORT_AREA_SIZE   or temporary tablespace ?

    Good Morning  Everyone !
    My DB version is 10.2.0.1
    I have large table  exactly 3 million records.
    SQL> select count(*) from tab1;
    COUNT(*)

    in Terminal 2 : I tried to find  sorting details -   ( No rows  selected - why ? )
    SQL> select USERNAME , USER , TABLESPACE , SQL_ID from v$tempseg_usage  ;
    no rows selected
    SQL> /
    no rows selected
    When i google i have seen this ;
    If  Oracle cannot do the sort in memory  (SORT_AREA_SIZE initialisation parameter), space will be allocated in a temporary tablespace for doing the sort operation.

    Thanks in advance.

    @ JohnWatson
    I have seen some articles from ORA - FAQ. Good.
    SQL> select USERNAME , USER , TABLESPACE , SQL_ID from v$tempseg_usage;
    USERNAME                       USER   TABLESPACE                      SQL_ID
       SCOTT                               SYS          TEMP                            fh9vqgyd6m0d1
    PGA management means that sorting only 300000 rows  may well occur in memory
                Is this (3 million rows) -  standard  value for 10g version ?
    Thanks JohnWatson

  • INCLUDED_IN_DATABASE_BACKUP for temporary tablespace

    Hi,
    The query output from v$tablespace shows the INCLUDED_IN_DATABASE_BACKUP value for temp tablespace in my db is "YES". The only way to have the value "NO" is to configure rman to exclude tbs. But you can not exclude temporary tablespace. Based on the size of total full backup files, the temp tablespace does not seem to be backup by rman. Is this a bug or is there other way to set this value for temporary tablespace to "NO"? I'm using 9iR2. Thanks.

    >...The only way to have the value "NO" is to configure rman to exclude tbs. But you can not exclude temporary tablespace.
    RMAN doesn't include the temporary tablespace in the backups.
