RE: 1 Table and its Indexes occupying 30% space of the Database.
Deepender - Wracking my brain to recall 7.3. Is partitioning a feature? One thing you might consider is to keep each of the indexes in its own tablespace. This will give you more flexibility. I would also keep track of the size each week to help you forecast growth. Size restrictions will depend somewhat on your system, but if you are at 7-gig., you've probably passed the 32-bit restriction, usually at 2-gig. Just some ideas. Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc.

What about max # of datafiles? If you're added them every 2 weeks what about making them larger? After all, not many systems are restricted by the 2Gb file size limit any more.

RE: 1 Table and its Indexes occupying 30% space of the Database.
With the size of your table you might want to consider changing it into a fake partitioned table (assuming there is a key that it would make sense to partition on) for better performance. While 7.3 doesn't support real partitioning, you can create seperate tables (each in their own tablespace) and create a view that joins them. This also has the advantage of being able to easily archive off data that is no longer needed. It might not be worth it for you but it's something to consider. Alternatively you could upgrade to a version that supports partitioning. -Original Message- Sent: Monday, May 13, 2002 3:38 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi All, I have a table in my database ( size 70GB ) with size of 7GB and it has 13 indexes on it. 5 Indexes are of the size 2 GB and rest are around 500-800Mb.
