Oracle 8.0.5.1.1
I am getting the ORA-01630 max number of extents (505) for a temp segment in
my temporary tablespace
message when I do a select count(*)
I have two tables,
1. has 300,000+ rows
2. has 1,200,000 rows
I retrieved the numbers by performing a select count(*) from xxxxxx.
I have a view that unions the two tables together for reporting purposes.
If
I try to do a select count(*) on the view, I run out of extents. Also on
occasion
when we rebuild table 2, I also run out of extents. (ORA-01630)
I am assuming that it is the sort_area_size parameter that may be causing
the problem,
but I am not sure. The temp tablespace and parameter values are as follows
:
initial extent = 524288
next extent = 524288
sort_area_size = 524288.
Checking the sysstat table I receive the following, which according to some
of the books I
have read indicate whether or not there is an issue with the sort_area_size
parameter.
NAME VALUE
------------------------------ ----------
sorts (memory) 35,128
sorts (disk) 155
Another tips, comments or looking in a different area to resolve this would
be greatly
appreciated
Thanks
Darren
