ALTER TABLE RETRACTABLE and DELETE are same as far as space is concerned. Right?
DB version: 11.2.0.4
OS: Oracle Linux 6.5
In my shop, we want to do a data cleanup (purge) so that we don't have to buy additional storage.
As far as I know, that when you can do a manual resizing of the data file, you can release space back to the system of files/Diskgroup.
SHRINK and DELETE free space for the data file, but it will create empty blocks for future insertions/changes.
Imagine a tablespace with a single file data (32GB) and 1 single segment. This segment can be created anywhere in a data file. In this 32 GB datafile oracle may place this segment in the 25 GB. So even if the total space used in the data file is 10 MB, you can resize only to 25 GB! The solution for this is to move the debate and then run an ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE... RESIZE the control.
But this 'moving segment' approach is not practical when want to deal with a lot of data with a lot of segments in her files.
Back to my original question about SHRINK and DELETE; If SHRINK and DELETE can free space in a data file, there is virtually no difference between SHRINK and REMOVE what little space is. Right?
Thus, the only advantage of SHRINK on delete, I can think of is that SHRINK will lower the HWM to the level of the segment so that Oracle does not have to scan all blocks (a lot of blocks empty sometimes) under the HWM of the segment.
My assumptions are correct?
I see no link between SHRINK and REMOVE.
However, your understanding of SPACE SHRINK is defective. Unless you explicitly use the COMPACT clause, a therapist will indeed free degrees and therefore make space available in the data file.

ALTER TABLE RETRACTABLE is possible online?
RDBMS Version: 11.2.0.4
Platform: Oracle Linux 6.4
We have a database of CARS of Production 2 nodes very critical. To recover the space, we want to cut some large tables. The first table we'll shrink is a 300 GB, which is not partitioned with no LOB table.
Here are the steps that we'll run.
Step1.alter mytable table allow the movement of the line;
Step2.alter mytable table shrink space compact;
Step3.alter mytable table shrink space;
Step4.alter table mytable disable the movement of the line;
STEP 5. COLLECT STATISTICS of the table (because the RETRACTABLE table will cancel all the sliders in the shared pool)
The steps above will take at least 10 hours to complete a 300 GB table. We would like to know if all of these steps can be done online. That is to say. We do not want the SHRINK command to lock the table and prevents the table to be modified (any DML) by the application
Doc below said this can be done online. But, MOS DOC 1357878.1 said that it is not and you must use the DBMS_REDEFINITION package if you want to do it online.
https://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E18283_01/server.112/e17120/schema003.htm
The MOS article you are talking about is not correct. Outside the DOF at the end of a SHRINK lock when the high tide is shifted, SHRINK the SPACE is an online operation. DBMS_REDEFNITION is actually worse because you have DDL locks at both the beginning and the end. However, in both cases, it is the DDL that is blocked by other operations DML (and not the other way around) so that your users will have no problem. If the narrowing or the redefinition is blocked, you can suspend the database for a few seconds. I described how to do here,

ALTER Table of the default Oracle and the length of name of column Type
Hi all
I want to increase the length of the table names and the names of the columns in Oracle.
By default, it is set like this:
SQL > dba_tab_columns desc;
TABLE_NAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2 (30)
COLUMN_NAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2 (30)
...
Is it possible to change the VARCHAR2 (30) to VARCHAR2 (100)?
Published by: sukrandere on 12:21 10.Mar.2010Table names and column are all two identifiers
According to the documentation, the maximum length of an identifier is 30 characters.
It is hard coded in the database software and you can't change it.
Or do you need to change.---------------

Compare the implementation plans for SELECT and DELETE
Hello
Version: 10.2.0.3
I REMOVE slow running in the Production db. I can't import and data, or run the REMOVE to get the Plan. For now, I managed to get the history of the plan.
However I would like to know if it is reasonable to assume the plans to SELECT and DELETE the same?

Rgds,
GuenounDo not understand your question.
Because I can very easy do a:explain plan for
remove from... where...;And then take a look at the plan generated in the PLAN_TABLE.
However, I guess that plans for a DELETE and a SELECT statement must be the same, because they need to finish work on the same data, in any case...
A simple test showed that I'm right.PLAN_ID OPERATION OPTIONS OBJECT_TYPE COST CARDINALITY BYTES ---------- ------------------------------ -------------------- ------------------------------ ---------- ----------- ---------- 3 DELETE STATEMENT 177714 7702839 3 DELETE 3 TABLE ACCESS FULL TABLE 177714 7702839 4 SELECT STATEMENT 179707 7702839 3928447890 4 TABLE ACCESS FULL TABLE 179707 7702839 3928447890

ALTER table move &; shrink space

Can you explain mw in detail or provide some linksALTER table move would make invalid indexes and would require so rebuild you the index. In addition to him, it requires extra space in the tablespace, even that would be used for the creation of the object in double. So if you have a table of 10 GB, you need additional 10 GB free todo table alter move. Whereas in the narrowing is a place, the online operation, does not make you go and rebuild the index because it doesn't make them not disabled, requires no additional space to have.

I deleted the backup but the iCloud space does not come back?
Hello, I'm Edding:
A few days earlier, iCloud warn me your iCloud-storage space is nearly full , so I check Storage manage my iCloud and I find backing up my iPhone and iPad are about 3 G of space above. So I delete the backup on iPhone.
BUT!, so far, the backup space deleted do not come back?
This is a shot of the screen of the Preferences system-> iCloud-> Manage
Is there something wrong with that?
THX.
Seems like you always have space reserved for your backup. One of the fixes that worked for me was to start backup until it becomes larger, then removes it again.
I also heard that he did not work for some.

ALTER INDEX REBUILD and large waste area
Hello world.
Concerns the RDBMS EE 10.2.0.2 on a box with 16CPUs. Non-standard initialization parameters:
db_16k_cache_size = 3G
pga_aggregate_target = 3G
SGA_MAX_SIZE = 12G
SGA_TARGET = 5G
workarea_size_policy = AUTO
I have a large table partitioned on a monthly basis with a local couple of bitmap index on this subject. Table and index are stored in different areas of storage. The index tablespace is
EXTENT MANAGEMENT UNIFORM LOCAL 1 M SIZE
16K BLOCKSIZE
SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO
Nightly batch processing allows a few partitions index unusable then inserts/adds one part of the data and rebuilds the index with
ALTER INDEX... REBUILD PARTITION... NOLOGGING PARALLEL
When you are finished, query on DBA_IND_PARTITIONS shows that, for all the index, partition value SCOPES is much greater than the value of used BYTES, for example one of the partitions has 106 DEGREES (1 MB each so he made 106 MB space) while only 15 MB for the BYTES.
I understand that during the reconstruction of the parallel process slave create segments in the tablespace of the index of destination so that spend a lot more space than this segment takes finally. But it also means that the space is not released. (Deallocation/shrinkage will not help). Same thing can be demonstrated by the queries on DBA_SEGMENTS and DBA_FREE_SPACE. Because of this behavior, I have huge waste of space in the tablespace to index.
Can someone help, please?

Przemek,
I can confirm that there is a bug in 10.2.0.2 leading to inconsistent information related to size in DBA_SEGMENTS / DBA_EXTENTS after an index rebuild in parallel to a big clue, maybe a bug 4771672 in 10.2.0.3. If I remember correctly the information of MEASUREMENT is correct and the information provided in DBA_SEGMENTS is misleading.
The Metalink note suggests to use DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN Procedure TABLESPACE_FIX_SEGMENT_EXTBLKS to correct erroneous information in the dictionary, but I don't know if it was the one we used when encountering the problem.
Kind regards

I tried to update to Mozilla Firefox and I had another icon on my desktop. Now, I have Mozilla Firefox 2 and they are both Version 41.0.2. They are both exactly the same thing when I open the. I see only one on my add/remove program location so I won't delete it because I could delete them both. Can you help me?
You can remove one of the office shortcuts if both point to the same firefox.exe in the same Firefox program folder.
You can keep the one with the correct version information where the other is an older version of Firefox.
Note that Firefox 42 will come out next week (Tuesday). -

Using insert and delete at the same time
Good afternoon
I want to do an insert on the table A in table B, while at the same time do a delete on table a.
and I want to do with the procedures.
Here is the script I came up with.
INSERT the table_a (select * from table_b where status = was ') REMOVE from table_b where status = has '
but I get an error ORA-00933.
Got any ideas on how I can do this?
Thank you
try to:
BEGIN
Insert into table_b (select * from table_a where status = has ');
remove from table_a where status = ';
END;

Query to select other records and then the same in 2 tables
Dear all,
My database is 10 gr 2 and OS is Linux.
I have 2 tables with the same fields and almost the same data. There are just a few different lines in table 1 and table 2 that do not match each other.
I need to select these non-matching rows in both tables in a single request.
Kindly help on that.
Best regards, ImranYou have at LEAST two ways!
(SELECT * FROM table_A minus SELECT * FROM table_B) union all (SELECT * FROM table_B minus SELECT * FROM table_A) /
