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 ;

Use the Microsoft Visual Studio Code(VScode) with Java Maven project.

The VS Code is the go to editor now a days for the latest technologies and scripting options. VS Code as we all know works seamlessly with Python and JavaScripts, and offcourse the .NET family. But VS Code has many extensions which makes it big Java IDEs run for their money. Lets explore what we could do with VSCode if we are Java developer. Install VScode , no brainer. Jus type download Visual Studio code in google. Alrright once we have VSCode. Open it. Install Maven and Java extension. 2. Go to files and a small window will now appear on left side navigation bar. 3. Select New Maven project. 4. Select the archtype from dropdown. 5. As usual input the grpid, artifactid etc. 6. Done. Go through a video which has much detailed navigation flow. Till next time !!!

Get a PLSQL code dump of all your Oracle database code.

I used to work as a part time DBA and when I was doing my supposedely menial tasks like unlocking accounts. One of the frequent request was to get an code for the object a Function or Package or Trigger. While this was trivial task to get an single object code it had to be quick. I never bothered to write any code or script to get that.  However one day a developer came and asked me for a code dump for a whole schema ( We had 2500 eligible objects). What he wanted was the code dump for every plsql object stored in the system. This included triggers, functions, procedures , packages. So I searched the internet and came up with a code to do that. It was fairly small 10 liner code which was astonishing. Curiously I never saw the function used anywhere. The function clob2file is from package dbms_xslprocessor. This one is available in oracle 11g so if you ever found yourself yearning to dump a clob object to file you should try using this. There was just a little problem I wante...

Oracle bulk insert with a single insert statement ignoring errors.

Starting from Oracle database release 10g you can have DML's succeed with partial data failures. How ? Default reaction of any bulk Insert or Update to an excption is atomic failure. i.e. If you were inserting 100 rows and one of the row fails to insert due to some constraint violation or duplicate records or any other check stuff. Your whole Insert fails. Of course you can write a quick PLSQL block with a LOOP and a null exception handler/logger which will basically ignore the exception or write it down somewhere and carry out your next loop iteration insertion. But first this makes you write the code for a loop and is more resource hogging. You should not have to start coding blocks everytime you want such data insertion. Below is how you can handle it. First you need to create a table for error logging it can be in any schema. Ex. EXECUTE DBMS_ERRLOG.CREATE_ERROR_LOG('EMPLOYEES' , 'EMPL_ERROR'); -- FOR CREATING ERROR LOG TABLE : TO LOG ERRORS DURING...
