Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> locally managed tbs in 9i and extent sizes
List,
I have a problem when I do a full import into an instance that I just made.
No matter what size I make the "DIAMOND" tablespace ( or datafile) I seem
to always get an ORA-1658 or ORA-1659. I have gone to metalink and read all
about it. Check storage clause, check free space, check extent size, etc.
This is 9iRel2 on AIX5.1.
So , I just make the datafile bigger and try again. But what is really
going on?
Below is my DIAMOND tablespace creation statement:
create tablespace diamond datafile '/.../diamond_01.dbf' size 500m extent management local uniform size 256k;
As you can see it is extent management local with uniform size of 256k.
If I query dba_tablespaces after creation with this statement you can see initial_extent,
next_extent, and so on:
SQL> l
1 select tablespace_name, initial_extent, next_extent, min_extents,
max_extents, extent_management, allocation_type, segment_space_management
2 from dba_tablespaces
3* where tablespace_name='DIAMOND'
SQL> /
TABLESPACE_NAME INITIAL_EXTENT NEXT_EXTENT MIN_EXTENTS MAX_EXTENTS
EXTENT_MAN ALLOCATIO SEGMEN
DIAMOND 262144 262144 1 2147483645 LOCAL UNIFORM MANUAL
Now for the question. Then why do I end up with all these different
initial_extent sizes?
Each segment_type (table) basically corresponds to a table I believe. As
you can see I end up with 128k, 256k,
16k, 32k, 40k, 50M extent sizes, etc. This just a small sampling. By
using "extent management local and uniform extent size 256k" shouldn't
I end up with all the same extent sizes?
What am I not seeing here? Should I create my tablespace with a much larger
initial_extent size such as 1M, 8M, or 64M?
SQL>
1 select tablespace_name, segment_type, extents, initial_extent,
next_extent, min_extents from dba_segments
2* where tablespace_name='DIAMOND' and segment_type='TABLE' SQL> / TABLESPACE_NAME SEGMENT_TYPE EXTENTS INITIAL_EXTENT NEXT_EXTENT MIN_EXTENTS
