How to Add Datafile to Tablespace and Tablespaces Usage , Tablespace Size Check

Hi,

I will explain How to Add Datafile a Tablespace and Tablespaces Usage , Size Check in this post.

You should read the following articles, if you don’t know What is the Tablespace.

https://ittutorial.org/create-tablespace-and-create-permanent-undo-and-temp-tablespace-add-datafile-tablespace-in-oracle/

You can add new datafile to the tablespace , If Oracle ASM is used, you can use the following script.

ALTER TABLESPACE NEW_TBS_TEST ADD DATAFILE '+DATA' SIZE 15M AUTOEXTEND ON MAXSIZE UNLIMITED;

You can add new datafile to the tablespace , If File System is used, you can use the following script.

ALTER TABLESPACE NEW_TBS_TEST ADD DATAFILE '/oracle/oradata/TEST/NEW_TBS_TEST03.dbf' SIZE 15M AUTOEXTEND ON MAXSIZE UNLIMITED;

You can check and query the usage of tablespaces with the following script.

exit;

The result of script is as follows.

If you need a new tablespace, You can create a new tablespace as follows.

If you are using file system for Oracle Storage, then you can use it following script.

CREATE TABLESPACE NEW_TBS_TEST
DATAFILE
'/oracle/oradata/TEST/NEW_TBS_TEST01.dbf' SIZE 4G AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 200M MAXSIZE UNLIMITED,
'/oracle/oradata/TEST/NEW_TBS_TEST02.dbf' SIZE 4G AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 200M MAXSIZE UNLIMITED
LOGGING
ONLINE
EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL AUTOALLOCATE
BLOCKSIZE 8K
SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO
FLASHBACK ON;

If you are using the Oracle ASM , then you can use it following script.

CREATE TABLESPACE NEW_TBS_TEST
DATAFILE
'+DATA' SIZE 4G AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 200M MAXSIZE UNLIMITED
LOGGING
ONLINE
EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL AUTOALLOCATE
BLOCKSIZE 8K
SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO
FLASHBACK ON;
