    SYSAUX tablespace size

    hi, we are having oracle 10g (10.2.0.4) on solaris, the sysaux tablespace is growing fast. I have reset the retention period to 20 days from 30 days and also purge the data. But no change in the growth of tablespace, iam solving this issue by resizing the sysaux datafile.


    What can be the cause for this?

    thanks,

    Who are your sysaux occupants and what's going on with them?

    Hi, i have executed the below statement

    SQL>exec dbms_stats.purge_stats(sysdate-&days);

    I have entered &days = 1, then terminated the session using ctrl+c after few minutes without successful execution.


    when i queried the below statement, i have received the error table or view does not exists.

    What could be the reason? Prior to execution of purge_stats package the query was successfully executed and giving result.


    SQL> select trunc(SAVTIME),count(1) from WRI$_OPTSTAT_HISTHEAD_HISTORY group by
    trunc(SAVTIME) order by 1;
    select trunc(SAVTIME),count(1) from WRI$_OPTSTAT_HISTHEAD_HISTORY group by trun
    c(SAVTIME) order by 1
    *
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00942: table or view does not exist


    Thanks,

    That's something a DBA shouldn't do; did you check what the session was doing?

    Did you check if the table/view exists? if it's not there somebody/something either drop it or renamed it.
