Hi,
I want to drop some schemas in a database I have for testing purposes, as I only have 25GB remaining on my disk. All the schemas I want to drop use the same tablespace, let's call it TEST_TBS
.
I have dropped the users using the command:
DROP USER <USER> CASCADE;
Then, I used the following script to check the tablespace usage:
SELECT
df.tablespace_name AS "Tablespace",
df.file_name AS "Datafile",
df.bytes / 1024 / 1024 AS "Size_MB",
SUM(fs.bytes) / 1024 / 1024 AS "Free_MB",
(df.bytes - SUM(fs.bytes)) / 1024 / 1024 AS "Used_MB",
ROUND(((df.bytes - SUM(fs.bytes)) / df.bytes) * 100, 2) AS "Pct_Used"
FROM
dba_data_files df,
dba_free_space fs
WHERE
df.file_id = fs.file_id(+)
AND df.tablespace_name = 'TEST_TBS'
GROUP BY
df.tablespace_name,
df.file_name,
df.bytes
ORDER BY
df.tablespace_name,
df.file_name;
Based on the results, I attempted to resize the datafiles using the command:
ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE '/data/oradata/test_tbs01.dbf' RESIZE 20G;
However, I have only gained 7GB of space (new disk space is now 32GB). I find it illogical that after dropping three schemas, I only gained 7GB.
Is there any operation I can perform to gain more space?
