Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: ORA-1554: Out of transaction slots
Thanks Gopal for the info provided. I would want to know how I can simulate this error? I did some tests but I got an "Unable to use system rollback segment for non system ... ".
We had one of our applications report this in the application log. I am trying to find out why?
Thanks
Raj

Rajesh:
The header block of the rollback segment contains the transaction table and this is roughly equal to the ITL in the data block headers. And number of transaction slots depends on the block size and for a 2k Block size you get 21 slots.
The transaction slots in the rollback segments are exposed in X$KTUXE and the slots are visible as ktuxeslt. You can use the following SQL to get the number of transaction slots for the rollback segments.
select count(*) ktuxeslt from X$ktuxe group by ktuxeusn;
When you don;t have a slot for the new transaction, you get the
ORA-01554.

Hello Folks,
I carried out a test, whereby I had just one rollback segment online with a block size of 2K, and then running updates against the database thru different sessions without commiting any of them? As expected, it accepted the first 21 transactions, and on the 22nd transaction, threw an "Unable to use system rollback segment for a non system .... " error.
When does Oracle report an "ORA-1554: Out of transaction slots" for a rollback segment?
Thanks
Raj
