Managing Tablespaces 531 MANAGEMENT AUTO clause. Oracle strongly recommends AUTOMATIC segment space manage- ment for permanent locally managed tablespaces, and the default behavior of Oracle 11g is AUTO . Here is a statement that creates a tablespace with manual segment space management: CREATE TABLESPACE hr_index DATAFILE ‘/u02/oradata/11GR11/hr_index01.dbf’ SIZE 2G EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL AUTOALLOCATE SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT MANUAL; When automatic segment space management is specified, bitmaps are used instead of free lists to identify which data blocks are available for inserts. The parameters PCTFREE and PCTUSED are ignored for segments in tablespaces with automatic segment space management. Automatic segment space management is available only on tablespaces configured for local extent management; it is not available for temporary or system tablespaces. Automatic seg- ment space management performs better and reduces your maintenance tasks, making it the preferred technique. To specify automatic segment space management, use the SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO clause of the CREATE TABLESPACE statement like this or do not include the SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT clause (it is the default): CREATE TABLESPACE hr_index DATAFILE ‘/u02/oradata/11GR11/hr_index01.dbf’ SIZE 2G EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL AUTOALLOCATE SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO; When automatic segment space management is used, Oracle ignores the storage param- eters PCTUSED , FREELISTS , and FREELIST GROUPS when creating objects. Although the name segment space management sounds similar to extent management, it is quite different and can be more accurately regarded as block space management. Choosing Other Tablespace Options Several options are available to use when creating a tablespace. You learned to create BIGFILE or SMALLFILE tablespaces and use the EXTENT MANAGEMENT and SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT options in the previous sections. In this section, you will learn the other options available while creating a tablespace: Specifying nondefault block size ÛN Specifying default storage characteristics ÛN Specifying logging and flashback clauses ÛN Creating offline tablespaces ÛN 95127c10.indd 531 2/17/09 2:00:34 PM Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. 532 Chapter 10 N Allocating Database Storage and Creating Schema Objects The following example shows the optional clauses you can use while creating a dictionary- managed tablespace: CREATE TABLESPACE APPL_DATA DATAFILE ‘/disk3/oradata/DB01/appl_data01.dbf’ SIZE 100M DEFAULT STORAGE ( INITIAL 256K NEXT 256K MINEXTENTS 2 PCTINCREASE 0 MAXEXTENTS 4096) BLOCKSIZE 16K MINIMUM EXTENT 256K LOGGING ONLINE FORCE LOGGING FLASHBACK ON EXTENT MANAGEMENT DICTIONARY SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT MANUAL; The following example shows the optional clauses you can use while creating a locally managed tablespace: CREATE TABLESPACE APPL_DATA DATAFILE ‘/disk3/oradata/DB01/appl_data01.dbf’ SIZE 100M DEFAULT STORAGE COMPRESS BLOCKSIZE 16K LOGGING ONLINE FORCE LOGGING FLASHBACK ON EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO; Though Oracle manages the tablespace characteristics very efficiently with its default values, you can specify several clauses to a finer level of control. The clauses in the CREATE TABLESPACE command can specify the following: DEFAULT STORAGE clause T h e DEFAULT STORAGE clause specifies the default storage parameters for new objects that are created in the tablespace. If an explicit storage clause is specified when creating an object, the tablespace defaults are not used for the specified storage parameters. The storage parameters are specified within parentheses; no parameter is mandatory, but if 95127c10.indd 532 2/17/09 2:00:34 PM Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. Managing Tablespaces 533 you specify the DEFAULT STORAGE clause, you must specify at least one parameter inside the parentheses. The storage parameters are valid only for dictionary-managed tablespaces; for locally managed tablespaces, you can specify only the COMPRESS option. I will discuss the storage parameters later in the chapter in the section “Creating a Table.” BLOCKSIZE clause Oracle allows a tablespace to have a different block size than the default standard database block size. The database block size is specified when you create the data- base using the initialization parameter DB_BLOCK_SIZE . This is the block size used for the SYSTEM tablespace and is known as the standard block size. The valid sizes of the nonstan- dard block size are 2KB, 4KB, 8KB, 16KB, and 32KB. If you do not specify a block size for the tablespace, the database block size is assumed. Multiple block sizes in the database are beneficial for large databases with OLTP and Decision Support System (DSS) data stored together and for storing large tables. The restrictions on specifying nonstandard block sizes along with the tablespace creation are discussed in the section “Using Nonstandard Block Sizes.” MINIMUM EXTENT clause T h e MINIMUM EXTENT clause specifies that the extent sizes should be a multiple of the size specified. You can use this clause to control fragmentation in the tablespace by allocating extents of at least the size specified; this clause is always a mul- tiple of the size specified. In the CREATE TABLESPACE example, all the extents allocated in the tablespace would be a multiple of 256KB. The INITIAL and NEXT extent sizes specified should be a multiple of MINIMUM EXTENT . This clause is valid only for dictionary-managed tablespaces. LOGGING / NOLOGGING clause The LOGGING/NOLOGGING clause specifies that the DDL opera- tions and direct-load INSERT should be recorded in the redo log files. This is the default, and the clause can be omitted. When you specify NOLOGGING , data is modified with minimal logging, and hence the commands complete faster. Since the changes are not recorded in the redo log files, you need to apply the commands again in the case of a media recovery. You can specify LOGGING or NOLOGGING in the individual object creation statement, and it over- rides the tablespace default. FORCE LOGGING clause You must specify this clause to log all changes irrespective of the LOGGING mode for individual objects in the tablespace. You can specify the NOLOGGING clause and FORCE LOGGING clause together when creating a tablespace. If you do so, the objects will be created in NOLOGGING mode and will be overridden by the FORCE LOGGING mode. When you take the tablespace out of the FORCE LOGGING mode, the NOLOGGING attri- bute for objects goes into effect. ONLINE/OFFLINE clause This clause specifies that the tablespace should be made online or available as soon as it is created. This is the default, and hence the clause can be omitted. If you do not want the tablespace to be available, you can specify OFFLINE . FLASHBACK ON/OFF clause FLASHBACK ON puts the tablespace in the flashback mode and is the default. The OFF option turns flashback off, and hence Oracle will not save any flash- back data. I will discuss flashback operations in Chapter 15, “Implementing Database Backups.” 95127c10.indd 533 2/17/09 2:00:35 PM Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. 534 Chapter 10 N Allocating Database Storage and Creating Schema Objects The clauses related to encrypting the tablespace are not discussed here because they are beyond the scope for this book. Using Nonstandard Block Sizes The block size used while creating the database is specified in the initialization parameter using the DB_BLOCK_SIZE parameter. This is known as the standard block size for the data- base. You must choose a block size that suits most of your tables as the standard block size. In most databases, this is the only block size you will ever need. Oracle gives you the option of having multiple block sizes, which is especially useful when you’re transporting tablespaces from another database with a different block size. The DB_CACHE_SIZE parameter defines the buffer cache size that is associated with the standard block size. To create tablespaces with nonstandard block size, you must set the appropriate initialization parameter to define a buffer cache size for the block size. The initialization parameter is DB_nK_CACHE_SIZE , where n is the nonstandard block size. n can have values 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32 but cannot have the size of the standard block size. For example, if your standard block size is 8KB, you cannot set the parameter DB_8K_CACHE_SIZE . If you need to create a tablespace that uses a different block size, say 16KB, you must set the DB_16K_CACHE_SIZE parameter. By default, the value for DB_nK_CACHE_SIZE parameters is 0MB. The temporary tablespaces created should have the standard block size. The DB_nK_CACHE_SIZE parameter is dynamic; you can alter its value using the ALTER SYSTEM statement. Creating Temporary Tablespaces Oracle can manage space for sort operations more efficiently by using temporary tablespaces. By exclusively designating a tablespace for temporary segments, Oracle eliminates the allo- cation and deallocation of temporary segments in a permanent tablespace. A temporary tablespace can be used only for sort segments. A temporary tablespace is used for temporary segments, which are created, managed, and dropped by the database as needed. These tem- porary segments are most commonly generated during sorting operations such as ORDER BY , GROUP BY , and CREATE INDEX . They are also generated during other operations such as hash joins or inserts into temporary tables. You create a temporary tablespace at database creation time with the DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE clause of the CREATE DATABASE statement or after the database is created with the CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE statement, like this: CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE temp TEMPFILE ‘/u01/oradata/11GR1/temp01.dbf’ SIZE 1G; 95127c10.indd 534 2/17/09 2:00:35 PM Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. Managing Tablespaces 535 Notice that the keyword TEMPFILE is used instead of DATAFILE . Temp files are available only with temporary tablespaces, they never need to be backed up, and they do not log data changes in the redo logs. The EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL clause is optional and can be omitted; you can provide it to improve readability. If you do not specify the extent size by using the UNIFORM SIZE clause, the default size used will be 1MB. Although it is always good practice to create a separate temporary tablespace, it is required when the SYSTEM tablespace is locally managed. Temporary tablespaces are created using temp files instead of data files. Temp files are allocated slightly differently than data files. Although data files are completely allocated and initialized at creation time, temp files are not always guaranteed to allocate the disk space specified. This means that on some Unix systems a temp file will not actually allocate disk space until a sorting operation requires it. Although this delayed allocation approach allows rapid file creation, it can cause problems down the road if you have not reserved the space that may be needed at runtime. Each user is assigned a temporary tablespace when the user is created. By default, the default tablespace (where the user creates objects) and the temporary tablespace (where the user’s sort operations are performed) are both the SYSTEM tablespace. No user should have SYSTEM as their default or temporary tablespace. This will unnecessarily increase fragmen- tation in the SYSTEM tablespace. When creating a database, you can also create a temporary tablespace using the DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE clause of the CREATE DATABASE statement. If the default temporary tablespace is defined in the database, all new users will have that tablespace assigned as the temporary tablespace by default if you do not specify another tablespace for the users’ tem- porary tablespace. You can also designate a data tablespace for application tables during database creation using the DEFAULT TABLESPACE clause. If there are multiple temporary tablespaces in a database and if you want to utilize the space in multiple temporary tablespaces to a user’s sort operation, you can use the tempo- rary tablespace groups. When creating the temporary tablespace, use the TABLESPACE GROUP clause as in the following example: CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP01 TEMPFILE ‘/u01/oradata/11GR1/temp01a.dbf’ size 200M EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL UNIFORM SIZE 5M TABLESPACE GROUP ALL_TEMPS; In this example, the tablespace is made part of the ALL_TEMPS temporary tablespace group. Tablespace groups are applicable only to temporary tablespaces. If the group does not exist, Oracle creates the group and adds the tablespace to the group. When creating a temporary tablespace, you can use only the EXTENT MANAGEMENT and TABLESPACE GROUP clauses along with TEMPFILE clause. All other options are invalid for temporary tablespaces. 95127c10.indd 535 2/17/09 2:00:35 PM Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. 536 Chapter 10 N Allocating Database Storage and Creating Schema Objects Creating Undo Tablespaces An undo tablespace stores undo segments, which are used by the database for several pur- poses, including the following: Rolling back a transaction explicitly with a ÛN ROLLBACK statement Rolling back a transaction implicitly (for example, through the recovery of a failed ÛN transaction) Reconstructing a read-consistent image of data ÛN Recovering from logical corruptions ÛN To create an undo tablespace at database creation time, set the initialization parameter UNDO_MANAGEMENT=AUTO (default), and include an UNDO TABLESPACE clause in your CREATE DATABASE statement, like this: CREATE DATABASE “TEST1” DATAFILE ‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/TEST1/system01.dbf’ SIZE 300M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 10240K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL SYSAUX DATAFILE ‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/TEST1/sysaux01.dbf’ SIZE 120M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 10240K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED SMALLFILE DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP TEMPFILE ‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/TEST1/temp01.dbf’ SIZE 20M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 640K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED SMALLFILE UNDO TABLESPACE “UNDOTBS1” DATAFILE ‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/TEST1/undotbs01.dbf’ SIZE 200M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 5120K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED DEFAULT TABLESPACE “USERS” DATAFILE ‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/TEST1/users01.dbf’ SIZE 5M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1280K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO CHARACTER SET WE8MSWIN1252 NATIONAL CHARACTER SET AL16UTF16 LOGFILE GROUP 1 (‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/TEST1/redo01.log’) SIZE 51200K, GROUP 2 (‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/TEST1/redo02.log’) SIZE 51200K, GROUP 3 (‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/TEST1/redo03.log’) SIZE 51200K SET DEFAULT SMALLFILE TABLESPACE USER SYS IDENTIFIED BY mysupersekret USER SYSTEM IDENTIFIED BY supersekret; You can create an undo tablespace after database creation with the CREATE UNDO TABLESPACE statement, like this: CREATE UNDO TABLESPACE undo DATAFILE ‘/ORADATA/PROD/UNDO01.DBF’ SIZE 2G; 95127c10.indd 536 2/17/09 2:00:35 PM Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. Managing Tablespaces 537 When creating undo tablespace, you can specify the undo retention clause. The RETENTION GUARANTEE option specifies that Oracle should preserve unexpired undo data until the period of time specified by the UNDO_RETENTION initialization parameter. This setting is useful for flashback query operations. RETENTION NOGUARANTEE is the default. The only tablespace clauses available to specify are EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL and DATAFILE when creating undo tablespaces. Undo management and retention are discussed in Chapter 13, “Managing Data and Undo.” Although it is always good practice to create a separate undo tablespace, it is required when the SYSTEM tablespace is locally managed. Removing Tablespaces Tablespaces that are not needed in the database can be dropped. Once a tablespace is dropped, there is no rollback. Though you can drop a tablespace with objects in it, it may be safer to drop the objects first and then drop the tablespace. To remove a tablespace from the database, use the DROP TABLESPACE statement: DROP TABLESPACE USER_DATA; If the tablespace is not empty, you should specify the optional clause INCLUDING CONTENTS to recursively remove any segments (tables, indexes, and so on) in the tablespace, like this: DROP TABLESPACE dba_sandbox INCLUDING CONTENTS; If there are referential integrity constraints from the objects on other tablespaces refer- ring to the objects in the tablespace that is being dropped, you must specify the CASCADE CONSTRAINTS clause: DROP TABLESPACE USER_DATA INCLUDING CONTENTS CASCADE CONSTRAINTS; When you drop a tablespace, the control file is updated with the tablespace and data file information. Dropping a tablespace does not automatically remove the data files from the file system. Use the additional clause INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES to remove the underlying data files as well as the stored objects, like this: DROP TABLESPACE hr_data INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES; If the Oracle Managed Files feature is used for the tablespace, such files will be removed automatically when you drop the tablespace. For files that are not Oracle managed, if you need to free up the disk space, you can either use OS commands to remove the data files belonging to the dropped tablespace or use the AND DATAFILES clause. You cannot drop the SYSTEM tablespace. 95127c10.indd 537 2/17/09 2:00:35 PM Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. 538 Chapter 10 N Allocating Database Storage and Creating Schema Objects Modifying Tablespaces Use an ALTER TABLESPACE statement to modify the attributes of a tablespace. These are some of the actions you can perform on tablespaces: Change the default storage clauses and the ÛN MINIMUM_EXTENT of a dictionary-managed tablespace. Change the extent allocation and ÛN LOGGING / NOLOGGING modes. Change the availability of the tablespace. ÛN Make the tablespace read-only or read-write. ÛN Coalesce the contiguous free space. ÛN Add more space by adding new data files or temporary files. ÛN Resize the data files or temporary files. ÛN Rename a tablespace or rename files belonging to the tablespace. ÛN Shrink temporary files or shrink space in the tablespace. ÛN Change flashback on or off and change retention guarantee. ÛN Begin and end a backup. ÛN The following sections detail common modifications you can perform on the tablespaces. Changing Storage Defaults Changing the default storage or MINIMUM_EXTENT or LOGGING / NOLOGGING does not affect the existing objects in the tablespace. The DEFAULT STORAGE and LOGGING / NOLOGGING clauses are applied to the newly created segments if such a clause is not explicitly specified when creating new objects. For example, to change the storage parameters, use the following statement: ALTER TABLESPACE APPL_DATA DEFAULT STORAGE (INITIAL 2M NEXT 2M); Only the INITIAL and NEXT values of the storage STORAGE are changed; the other storage parameters such as PCTINCREASE or MINEXTENTS remain unaltered. Adding a Data File to a Tablespace Smallfile tablespaces can have multiple data files and can thus be spread over multiple file sys- tems without engaging a logical volume manager. To add a data file to a smallfile tablespace, use an ADD clause with the ALTER TABLESPACE statement. For example, the following statement adds a 2GB data file on the /u02 file system to the receivables tablespace: ALTER TABLESPACE receivables ADD DATAFILE ‘/u02/oradata/ORA10/receivables01.dbf’ SIZE 2G; 95127c10.indd 538 2/17/09 2:00:35 PM Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. Managing Tablespaces 539 Taking a Tablespace Offline or Online You can control the availability of certain tablespaces by altering the tablespace to be offline or online. When you make a tablespace offline, the segments in that tablespace are not accessible. The data stored in other tablespaces is available for use. When making a tablespace unavailable, you can use these four options: NORMAL This is the default. Oracle writes all the dirty buffer blocks in the SGA to the data files of the tablespace and closes the data files. All data files belonging to the tablespace must be online. You need not do a media recovery when bringing the tablespace online. For example: ALTER TABLESPACE USER_DATA ONLINE; TEMPORARY Oracle performs a checkpoint on all online data files. It does not ensure that the data files are available. You may need to perform a media recovery on the offline data files when the tablespace is brought online. For example: ALTER TABLESPACE USER_DATA OFFLINE TEMPORARY; IMMEDIATE Oracle does not perform a checkpoint and does not make sure that all data files are available. You must perform a media recovery when the tablespace is brought back online. For example: ALTER TABLESPACE USER_DATA OFFLINE IMMEDIATE; FOR RECOVER This makes the tablespace offline for point-in-time recovery. You can copy the data files belonging to the tablespace from a backup and apply the archive log files. For example: ALTER TABLESPACE USER_DATA OFFLINE FOR RECOVER; You cannot make the SYSTEM tablespace offline because the data dictionary must always be available for the functioning of the database. If a tablespace is offline when you shut down the database, it remains offline when you start up the database. You can make a tablespace offline by using the following statement: ALTER TABLESPACE USER_DATA OFFLINE When a tablespace is taken offline, SQL statements cannot reference any objects contained in that tablespace. If there are unsaved changes when you take the tablespace offline, Oracle saves rollback data corresponding to those changes in a deferred rollback segment in the SYSTEM tablespace. When the tablespace is brought back online, Oracle applies the rollback data to the tablespace, if needed. Making a Tablespace Read-Only If a tablespace contains static data, it can be marked read-only. Tablespaces that contain historic or reference data are typical candidates for read-only. When a tablespace is read- only, it does not have to be backed up with the nightly or weekly database backups. One backup after being marked read-only is all that is needed for future recoveries.

You cannot make the SYSTEM tablespace read-only. When you make a tablespace read- only, all the data files must be online, and the tablespace can have no active transactions. You can drop objects such as tables or indexes from a read-only tablespace, but you cannot create new objects in a read-only tablespace. Use a READ ONLY clause with an ALTER TABLESPACE statement to mark a tablespace read- only. For example, to mark the SALES2007 tablespace read-only, execute the following: ALTER TABLESPACE sales2007 READ ONLY; If you need to make changes to a table in a read-only tablespace, make it read writable again with the keywords READ WRITE , like this: ALTER TABLESPACE sales2007 READ WRITE; Oracle normally checks the availability of all data files belonging to the database when starting up the database. If you are storing your read-only tablespace on offline storage media or on a CD-ROM, you might want to skip the data file availability checking when starting up the database by setting the parameter READ_ONLY_OPEN_DELAYED to TRUE . Oracle checks the availability of data files belonging to read-only tablespaces only at the time of access to an object in the tablespace. A missing or bad read-only file will not be detected at database startup time. Putting a Tablespace in Backup Mode If you perform non-RMAN online backups, sometimes called user-managed backups, you need to put a tablespace in backup mode before you begin to copy the data files using an operating-system program. While the tablespace is in backup mode, the database continues to write data to the data files (checkpoints occur), but the occurrences of these checkpoints are not recorded in the header blocks of the data files. This omission tells the database that recovery may be needed if the database instance gets terminated abruptly. While a tablespace is in backup mode, some additional information is written to the redo logs to assist with recovery, if needed. See Chapter 15 for more information on backups, and see Chapter 16, “Recovering the Database,” for more information about recovery. Some companies perform backups by splitting a third mirror, mounting these mirrored file systems onto another server, and then copying them to tape. To safely split the mirror, alter all your tablespaces into backup mode, make the split, and then alter all the tablespaces out of backup mode. Put them into backup mode like this: ALTER TABLESPACE system BEGIN BACKUP; Use the keywords END BACKUP to take a tablespace out of backup mode, like this: ALTER TABLESPACE system END BACKUP; 95127c10.indd 540 2/17/09 2:00:35 PM Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark.
