convert RBS tablespace from DMT to LMT (Oracle 8173) steps?

2003-07-23 Thread Guang Mei
Hi: I need to convert RBS tablespace (used for rollback segments) from DMT to LMT on a 24x7 production machine (Solaris 2.8, Oracle 8173). Here are the steps I am thinking of taking: 1. create a new rbslmt tablespace 2. create new rollback segments (RBSlmt01, RBSlmt02, ... RBSlmt 06) in rbslmt

Do I need to? I thought after all the steps I still have the same rollback segment names (RBS01-06). The only difference is they will be in LMT now. Guang -Original Message- DENNIS WILLIAMS Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2003 1:35 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Guang - Don't

Guang Yes, I noticed that after I posted my reply. Typically if this was a production system I would tend to create new rollback segments, online the new segments, offline the old segments, then change the init.ora. Sometime later I would drop the old segments and tablespace, maybe after a

Oracle will not let you drop a rollback segment if there are active transactions using it. However, it will allow you to offline the segment and no new transactions can use it. I don't recall the exact status in v$rollstat, but I think it may say pending offline. As for the commit across

I just finished this conversion by using Ron's method: looping through RBS00X (X from 1 to 6): alter rollback segment RBS00X offline; drop rollback segment RBS00X; create rollback segment RBS00X storage(initial 2048K next 2048K minextents 2 ) tablespace RBSlmt; alter rollback segment RBS00X

Hi, guang: I have two questions: 1. Why create rbs on lmt tablespace and later drop it again? Just do step 1-7 and it is ok. Or maybe you need to update your init file, but you can also offline old rbs01 and create new rbs01 on lmt, and so on. 2. If you have dmt rollback segment in

Hi! Great you got everything working fine. Just a note, that in truly high available systems, it's reasonable to wait until all long-running queries, which were started before offlining rollback segments, have ended before you actually drop the offlined rollback segments. Oracle is able to read
