Samir,
Thanks..Due to lot of activities of rollback segment resulting in shrinkage make rbs tablesapce fragmented hence contigous space becomes a issue...Possible solution to set a good size of optsize of rbs to avoid shrinkages or frequent coalesing of rbs tablespace / or any other tablespace on the basis of following query ...if pct < 100

select substr(tablespace_name,1,10)TS_NAME,total_extents "Total_Extnts",extents_coalesced,round(percent_extents_coalesced,0) from dba_free_space_coalesced
order by tablespace_name
/

Regards
Rafiq

Thanks a lot for ur help, Rafiq. I have acted as per ur recommendation and asked the customer to try the delete job again.....have not received a feedback from them yet but sometimes they only revert back to me if they have faced a problem again.....if I do not hear anything by this evening, I will assume that it has worked.

Regards,
Samir

Is your tablespace fragmented as it is not finding contingous extent .. TRy to coalesce your subject tablespace and try...

you can use following script to check whether coalesing is required or not.. If percent is < 100 then coalesce it..

select substr(tablespace_name,1,10)TS_NAME,total_extents "Total_Extnts",extents_coalesced,round(percent_extents_coalesced,0) from dba_free_space_coalesced
order by tablespace_name

All,

The following is the pitiable scenario I am in and would really appreciate a bit of help :

   We were running a long running delete job which gave the following error :

                                 Oracle8 Enterprise Edition Release
8.0.5.2.1 - Production
                                PL/SQL Release 8.0.5.2.0 - Production
                                SQLWKS> EXECUTE
PKG_PAS_AnnualDataMaintenance.Delete_OldData (2000, '/home/sqribe/work/live', '2000AnnualDataDelete.log');
                                ORA-01562: failed to extend rollback segment
number 8
                                ORA-01650: unable to extend rollback segment
RSUNDB08 by 50 in tablespace RSUN425
                                ORA-06512: at
"PAS.PKG_PAS_ANNUALDATAMAINTENANCE", line 66
                                ORA-06512: at line 2


   I don't understand why it ran out of rollback space. The rollback segment has a virtually unlimited number of extents, so the only explanation I can see is that this particular rollback segment expanded until it exceeded the space allocation for the whole tablespace RSUN425, which is 3,000M. However, Oracle Storage Manager shows only 200M of the tablespace used, and it also shows high water marks against each rollback segment, none of which exceeds 400M. This would suggest to me that none of the previous month's deletions exceeded 400M per month, so why should it fail on this particular one when it had nearly 3,000M available?

Is there something I am not understanding about rollback segments ??

Thanks and Regards,
Samir
