Sorry, don't understand the DBA part ( #2 ).

Would have thought:
 
1. A developer would have known this - a SQL many-to-many join
 
2. A DBA would have known this - how else would you know what's happening with your tablespaces? (Clickety-pointy answers not allowed)

You can't join DBA_EXTENTS and DBA_DATA_FILES based on an

equality of tablespace_name, and then add up the bytes of the files

for the tablespace.


ie.  


select

  b.tablespace_name,

  b.bytes

from dba_extents a, dba_data_files b

where a.tablespace_name=b.tablespace_name


Try running that query, and it may become clear.


Your first query correctly aggregates the file sizes.


The second query determines tablespace size based

on the number of extents allocated to it.


Drop all the objects in the tablespace, and your tablespace

will no longer appear to have any space.

Friends --

Why would these two queries return different results?

This query works.

SQL> l
1  select
a.tablespace_name,megs_allocated,megs_used,round(megs_used/b.megs_allocated,
2)*100 pct
2  from (select tablespace_name,sum(bytes)/(1024*1024) megs_used
3  from dba_extents group by tablespace_name) a,
4  (select tablespace_name,sum(bytes)/(1024*1024) megs_allocated
5  from dba_data_files  group by tablespace_name) b
6  where a.tablespace_name=b.tablespace_name
7* and a.tablespace_name='NAUAT'
SQL> /

TABLESPACE_NAME                MEGS_ALLOCATED  MEGS_USED        PCT
------------------------------ -------------- ---------- ----------
NAUAT                                22924.25      11509         50


This query does not work

1  select a.tablespace_name,sum(b.bytes)/(1024*1024) megs_allocated,
2  sum(a.bytes)/(1024*1024) megs_used,
3  round(sum(a.bytes)/sum(b.bytes),4)*100 pct
4  from dba_extents a, dba_data_files b
5  where a.tablespace_name=b.tablespace_name
6  and a.tablespace_name='NAUAT'
7* group by a.tablespace_name,b.tablespace_name
SQL> /

TABLESPACE_NAME                MEGS_ALLOCATED  MEGS_USED        PCT
------------------------------ -------------- ---------- ----------
NAUAT                              31773010.5      23018        .07
