this is not elegant, but works:
execute this is sqlplus:
host (srvinfo -od ) > disk_info.txt
host blat disk_info.txt -to log_files_at_foo.com
which will provide you with output of the format:

This does require that you have the utility "blat.exe" installed and in your path.

Arn't you going to make sure you actually have the disk space to resize that data file first? SomethingOEM does not do for you. Must go out to the server and check.

Mike, i'm with you there. alter database datafile
'/fill/in/name/here' resize 200m; or right click in OEM and
change the size. As long as you can do the previous then
might as well use the latter :) joe

More on the same vein. Sorry if this thread is developing a
"me too" feel.
I'm happy to use GUI tools when they save me time. I know what
they're doing and
how they achieve their results.
The availability of GUI tools is however a huge disincentive
for new DBAs to
find out how the database actually works and leads to a lack
of understanding of
the way the beast works as a whole.
If your goal is to be a knowledgeable and effective DBA then
you can't beat
starting from the command line and working your way towards
GUI when you find
your feet. That requires a long-term viewpoint though, and the
world is
focussing increasingly on the short term.
If I sound like a Luddite then I've given the wrong
impression; that;s just my 4
groats-worth.
Regards,
Mike

Oh I agree
As a newbie to the Oracle fold I found it oh so easy to dive
into
stuff with the DBA Studio, I suppose the thing that stops me
is some 7 or
more years hacking around Linux and Unix systems. Graphical
tools are great
for some things but you just cant beat the capabilities of a
good script
and Windows will be a lot better for it now it has a good
scripting system.
What i found DBA studio for thogh was the show SQL button I
could set up
some task to do and then have a look at the SQL that was going
to happen so
I could better understand it.
I am sure when we start seeing more Oracle up on Win2K we will
see a lot
more scripting on that side to do those mixed OS and SQLPlus
tasks.
