I know there are some versions that the sppurge doesn't remove rows from the children tables. I haven't noticed this since I got to 8.1.7.3 on Tru64. You can write a script to delete from the other tables where they don't have a record in the parent table and run it the same time as SPURGE.
Stephen >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/10/03 12:14PM >>> Hello All, We have a job ( shell Script ) which deletes from the statspack tables every Sunday, but uses SPPURGE.sql ( $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin). Seems like it is not deleting all tables and hence causing the tablespace to grow. Does anybody has a different approach which deletes all table without any referential integrity issues ?? I do not want to use SPTRUNC.sql please. Pl find below some of the statspack tables are growing so big ( also Indexes /PKs ).
