Server Administration :: How To Reclaim Space After Deleting A Data File
Jun 30, 2010
i have a tablespace with a datafile of 20g. now by mistake i delete the datafile and then try to delete the tablespace from EM but i got an error which says that data file is not present to delete
Now initially after deleting the file physically so then i check space by applying df -ah at os lvl so it didn't reclaim the space now i try to delete the tablespace from em so it gives me the above error. This might be due to tablespace existence. so how can i reclaim the space.

In one of our Data warehousing DB, even though, all the tablespaces' space should keep on at least 1 month, but our leader want us to estimate how much space can free up with db method.
I have referenced
<Administrator Guide> - Reclaiming Wasted Space
[URL].....
I have several questions on reclaim space:
1. It seems that segment adviser give a really cool view to know which segment should be shrink and how much size will free up after shrink. But actually, this need a very a job or manually do this. I have once heard about some query from can estimate this :
A script from MOS, but actually I found this it's not very accurate with segment adviser. This script should report the real space the table occupy, but after shrink space, the space doesn't free up.
SELECT TABLE_NAME , (BLOCKS *8192 / 1024/1024 ) - (NUM_ROWS*AVG_ROW_LEN/1024/1024)
"Data lower than HWM in MB" FROM DBA_TABLES WHERE UPPER(owner) =UPPER('&OWNER') order by 2 desc;
Also there is a script evaluate the tablespace fragments from some people:
SELECT tablespace_name,
SQRT (MAX (blocks) / SUM (blocks))
* (100 / SQRT (SQRT (COUNT (blocks))))
FSFI
FROM dba_free_space
GROUP BY tablespace_name
ORDER BY 1;
if the value is very low, we can coalesce the tablespace. But after I coalesce the tablespace, I can't see any space free up.
From <Concepts>:
Quote:Coalescing extents is not necessary in
locally managed tablespaces, because all contiguous free space is available for
allocation to a new extent regardless of whether it was reclaimed from one or more
extents.
2. is there any good way to estimate how much space we should free up? ( After free up the space , dba_free_space should see this result)

I'm new into Oracle, consider the below scenario and respond it accordingly.
I want to add 500GB data file at primary database side, but doesn't have space at standby database side. My STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT is set to Auto.

I am having an issue with the LOBs in our Database. Our production DB is about 71G right now - if i do export/import using the DataPump - I see the data volume becomes 40G. I am sure its because of the LOBs in my Database. Our application uses lots of LOB datatype and I think the space is not being released.
The challenge is I cant do a full export/import in my Production DB as its a 24/7 system and to do export/import I need min. 5 hrs - which my business will not permit. I can I claim the unused space here. I have used Segment Advisor - but it has only given me 6G of space gain.
Is there any script I can try to use to reclaim space in the database.

I am trying to use shrink to reclaim space on some tables:
-First of all i am using this query to verify which tables are eligible to shrink:
select segment_owner, segment_name, segment_type,
trunc(((allocated_space)/1024)/1024) "aloc",
trunc(((used_space)/1024)/1024) "used" ,
trunc(((reclaimable_space)/1024)/1024) "reclaim"
from table(DBMS_SPACE.ASA_RECOMMENDATIONS()) where segment_owner='&owner' and segment_type='TABLE' order by reclaimable_space desc;
I'll show the toP1 below:
SEGMENT_OWNER SEGMENT_NAME SEGMENT_TYPE aloc used reclaim
-------------------------- --------------------------- ------------------ ---------------- --------
USR_CONTROLFIN CFI_PORTADOR TABLE 744 0 743
Fine, then i shrinked it:
10:06:39 brunos@gf> alter table usr_controlfin.cfi_portador enable row movement;
Table altered
Executed in 0,047 seconds
10:06:57 brunos@gf> alter table usr_controlfin.

if i killed the SID - 1226, then those temp blocks ( 18176 blocks ) will be released and can other session use that space further ?
there is one more column - SEGBLK#
explain what is the exact meaning of this column ?
to reclaim the space, should i issue below command -
sql>alter tablespace TEMP coalesce;

In normal days size of archives generated in a day is 14-15GB. But since yesterday morning, almost 150GB of archives have been generated and are still getting generated(200MB every 1-2 minutes).
There was a sudden reboot of server yesterday morning. At that time there was heavy load of transactions on database. Can it be a reason that smon is still doing recovery? (I am not sure on this). Also, Undo tablespace is increased from 18 GB to 50 GB since yesterday (autoextend on).
Now we are running out of space for archive file system (can't delete them also until they are transferred to DR) Size of redo log is 200MB. This database supports around 2500 users.
performance wise I don't see any hit. Also wait events are normal. (only few db file sequential read) finding the query/session which are causing this much huge amount of archives?

We are using Oracle 10g and have 10 tablespaces defined for our Database which have 108 tables. Size of 108 tables is around 251 MB as seen during importing the dump. While creating these 10 tablespaces I used below parameters for allocation of space
SIZE 1M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1M MAXSIZE 1M;
which set the initial space for 10 tablespaces to around 1032Kb each. Now my Question is after importing the dump , how the disk space for 10 tablespaces increases to 398 MB in total ?
Is there any relation of Tablespace disk space and Actual Data present in the tables ?

am using Oracle 10.2.0.4 on win 2008 server SP2. I would like to know if we can set the Segment Space Management feature to AUTO for RBS and Temporary tablespaces. As the data is not permanent in these tablespaces, will it manage automatically?
Presently its Segment Space Mgmt is manual for System, RBS, Temporary tablespaces.

We have separate tablespaces for Tables and Indexes. Also Temp is in different temporary tablespace and UNDO also in UNDO tablespace and Index tablespace contains only Indexes. The tablespace usage for tables is 80% and Index is 91%.There is not enough disk space to allocate for the datafile on our system. I ran a rebuild on one of the Index but now notice the Index tablespace is 98% used soon after the rebuild finished.
How can i free up space for Index tablespace and why does the size of Index tablespace increased after the rebuild.
