Oracle growth reports

Oracle Tips by Burleson Consulting

Oracle provides time-series segment statistics for tables and index in the 10g Automated workload Repository tables (AWR).  These can quickly extract data for Oracle growth reports.

Note: for tracking table and index growth over time, see the dba_hist_seg_stat table.

If you are pre-Oracle10g you can write your own tables to periodically examine and store object sizes for database growth reports by creating your own STATSPACK extension tables (See book "Oracle Tuning: The Definitive Reference", for ready to use scripts to create a stats$tab_stats and stats$idx_stats tracking tables).

In Oracle 10g, total database growth reports are is easy because the dba_hist_seg_stat tables provides the delta value for every table and index (Note:  the "total" columns are not implemented as of Oracle 10.0.2).

Below is a great script to display the total Oracle growth between two periods.  This script can be modified to display overall database growth trends for capacity planning purposes.  You can also see the growth of key tables and indexes with this Oracle growth tracking script.  Oracle table growth reports

select sum(space_used_delta) / 1024 / 1024 "Space used (M)", sum(c.bytes) / 1024 / 1024 "Total Schema Size (M)",
round(sum(space_used_delta) / sum(c.bytes) * 100, 2) || '%' "Percent of Total Disk Usage"

   dba_hist_seg_stat a,
   dba_objects b,
   dba_segments c

where end_interval_time > trunc(sysdate) - &days_back
and sn.snap_id = a.snap_id
and b.object_id = a.obj#
and b.owner = c.owner
and b.object_name = c.segment_name
and c.owner = '&schema_name'
and space_used_delta > 0;
 
ttitle "Total Disk Used by Object Type"
 
select c.segment_type, sum(space_used_delta) / 1024 / 1024 "Space used (M)", sum(c.bytes) / 1024 / 1024 "Total Space (M)",
round(sum(space_used_delta) / sum(c.bytes) * 100, 2) || '%' "Percent of Total Disk Usage"
from
   dba_hist_snapshot sn,
   dba_hist_seg_stat a,
   dba_objects b,
   dba_segments c
see code depot for full script
where end_interval_time > trunc(sysdate) - &days_back
and sn.snap_id = a.snap_id
and b.object_id = a.obj#
and b.owner = c.owner
and b.object_name = c.segment_name
and space_used_delta > 0
and c.owner = '&schema_name'
group by rollup(segment_type);
spool off

A sample of this report show the total database growth between the two snapshot periods.

If you like Oracle tuning, check-out my latest book "Oracle Tuning: The Definitive Reference", the best deal at 30% off, buying directly from the publisher. 

Packed with almost 1,000 pages of Oracle performance tuning techniques, it's the foolproof way to find and correct Oracle bottlenecks.
