Max Extents Error

2001-03-08 Thread Sanjay Kumar



Hi,

I have a table which consists of Long Raw column in 
addition to other columnsof Number and Varchar2 datatypes.

I have the datafile size set to 2GB. The average 
length of the messages goes up to 100M, sometimes more than that.

I have now added three datafiles to that tablespace 
each greater than the first datafile. But I still keep getting the
ORA-01631 Max extents reached for table "A" 
error.

What do I do resolve this error?

I am using 8K as the DB block size on SOlaris with 
Oracle 816. It is not a prod environment instead a dev environment.

Thanks
Sanjay

Oracle Installation on DiskArray

2001-03-06 Thread Sanjay Kumar



Hi,

Thanks to those who replied. I was wondering 
whether which RAID level to implement.

My database is not a very critical 24x7 database. 
It is a development database. There are going to be only a few users accessing 
this database. Infact the data as such is not very important as it is test 
data.

Any suggestions on which RAID level to 
implement?

TIA
Sanjay

Re: Table Storage Estimates

2001-02-28 Thread Sanjay Kumar

Thanks all for the solution. I too thought of having a 1 : 1 relationship by
separating the long raw column from the table. But I believe I am not
permitted to do that (Strange). Since this is a third party product, I
am not suppose to change any of the design issues and also the datatype.

I believe row chaining is obvious in this situation. Also the average row
length is 10M. The size of the database block size is 8.

When I queried the dba_extents to find the number of blocks that have been
occupied, it showed 16620 and the number of rows are 113.

I am totally confused now. Any help greatly appreciated.

Your estimate comes to around 1 row per block.
What is the average row lenght once data is in the db
? Do you have row chaining ?

What is your block size ? Can you increase it ?

If a lot of queries do not need the long raw column
you can put it in another table with a 1 to 1
relationship with the parent table.

If your planning to have 200 rows of 1 block each, I
do not understand why you are adding datafiles as the
data should not occupied more than 3200K if you
blocksize is 16K. Increase the size of the initial
datafile instead of adding new ones.

Hi,

 I have a table which has a structure similar to the
 following.

 MID NOT NULL
 VARCHAR2(24)
 NAME
 VARCHAR2(512)
 PRIORITY
 NUMBER(38)
 PERSISTENT
 CHAR(1)
 EXP_DATE
 DATE
 BODY
 LONG RAW


 I estimated the table storage for this table using
 the formula given in the Oracle documentation. It
 comes to around 1 rows per block.

 It is estimated that the number of rows for this
 table will not exceed 200.

 My questions are

 1. Doesnt this lead to fragmentation.?
 2. I have added three datafiles to this tablespace
 as of now and it seems like this might require more
 space. How do I effectively redesign this
 table to avoid contention and chaining?

 3. Moreover, initially when there were 105 rows
 inserted, I issued a count(*) and it took about 5
 minutes? How do I reduce the time taken to execute
 the query?


 I would highly appreciate if someone comes forward
 to help me on this.

 I am using Oracle 8.1.6 on Solaris

Document Preparation for a table

2001-02-28 Thread Sanjay Kumar



Hi,


I am asked to prepare a document listing all 
possible suggestions for an effective tuningof a single 
table.

The table has five to six columns with one column 
having a Long Raw datatype.
The average row that gets into the database is 
about 1GB.

Could anyone give me possible 
suggestions?

I was planning to start from DB Block Size. I also 
thought of having 16 as the block size. 

I would like to know whether is this a good idea of 
having 16?

User objects in System tablespace

2001-02-05 Thread Sanjay Kumar



Hi,

I have a situation where in all the user related 
objects (tables) have been created in System tablespace.

I believe there is no convention followed while 
creating these tables. 

Now, how do I separate these user related objects 
and put them in Users tablespace?
