Oracle Database check tablespace usage and size.

Many production oracle database instances do not have auto incrementing tablespaces. You would need to know beforehand before users start getting ORA-01688 unable to extend tablespace errors.

You would probably have some sort of monitoring on the tablespaces already , OEM shows alerts about tablespaces readily as well. But its good to have a query handy to quickly check the tablespace usages you have in your system.

select df.tablespace_name ,totalusedspace  "totalusedspace_mb" ,
(df.totalspace - tu.totalusedspace) "Free_MB",
df.totalspace "Total_MB",
round(100 * ( (df.totalspace - tu.totalusedspace)/ df.totalspace))
"Pct. Free"
from
(select tablespace_name,
round(sum(bytes) / 1048576) TotalSpace
from dba_data_files 
group by tablespace_name) df,
(select round(sum(bytes)/(1024*1024)) totalusedspace, tablespace_name
from dba_segments 
group by tablespace_name) tu
where df.tablespace_name = tu.tablespace_name ;

Introduction to Oracle Analytical functions , rank , denserank.

In this video we tried to demonstrate how oracle anaytical function works. How to do Top N query with oracle's rank and dense_rank function. Also explained is how outputs and functionality of rank and dense_rank differs , what should be used when. The demonstration video is from Linux Mint OS and I have used my own Query Light application. Hope you find it enlightening.   Here are some of the screen prints.  Use of Oracle Rank Analytical Function. Oracle Top N Query using rank analytical functions.

Oracle Analytical Functions : Tutorial Part 2 Covers sum avg lag lead.

In this tutorial video we have demonstrated how to use oracle analytical functions like lag , lead , sum and avg etc. Example 1. Use of oracle function sum to display running totals with the use of unbounded preceding. select sum(Salary) over (order by salary rows unbounded preceding) running_total , salary , e.* from employees e Identify gap in the contiguous sequences with the lag function. Ex. In Employees table we have contiguous sequence of employees but due to some anomaly we found that there is now gap in the sequences. Ex Employee Id 210 comes after 206 which is not contiguous. We can write a query as given below to identify such sequence gaps. Oracle Lag Function select * from ( select lag (e.employee_id , 1) over (order by e.employee_id) as prev_emp, e.* from employees e ) tmp where (tmp.employee_id - tmp.prev_emp) > 1
