RE: Space... confusion
April - This is what I hear you saying: - The database was set up on a file system, and there was room to spare. - The file system ran out of space. - Don't know what occurred to take up space, there should have been nothing. - The situation is fixed now. HOW?? If the above is true, I think your best bet may be to attempt to reproduce the problem. But first, carefully measure everything, using something like Unix's du -k command. I think that is the only way you will ever pin it down. If you are essentially back to operating again, then get a snapshot now. One thought that just occurred to me, is to check the timestamps. If something changed in size, the timestamp may have changed. I don't believe the Oracle datafiles are updated in a read-only situation. The control file probably gets written to frequently. -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, October 10, 2002 12:34 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Is journaling, but journal isn't in that file system, just on the raw part of the volume group April Wells Oracle DBA Keep yourself well oiled with life, laughter, new ideas and action.

Re: Space... confusion
Probably due to tempfiles in your TEMPORARY tablespace... Tempfiles are sparsely populated files (not certain if that is the correct term). That is, if you display them with the command ls -l, you'll see them apparently consuming the full amount of space you specified when you created them. However, if you get the chance, try to perform a df -k against the file-system in question before and after you ADD TEMPFILE and you'll see that the space consumed within the file-system doesn't change. Then, as sorting or global-temporary-table activity hits the TEMP tablespace, you'll see changes in df -k... In essence, there is a difference between the output displayed by ls -l and df -k, and the df command is correct. I'm not sure how the du command reacts to all this... Not really sure how to explain it, but I'm pretty that this is what you are experiencing.
