I have run the command :

ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE ‘/data/oradata/test.dbf’ RESIZE 5000M;

Then whe I checked in v$datafile and in the actual file in the system(operating system) in the machine, I found that indeed the space was added but still my table space still shows that there is still a shortage of space. I had connect using telnet, but I lost the connection before the command complete, Could this be the reason.

 

Before I resize the datafile the below sql was giving me the output below:

select file#,bytes,create_bytes,status,name  from v$datafile   

 

Before I resize the datafile the below sql was giving me the output below:

FILE#      BYTES CREATE_BYTES STATUS  NAME

   9            5242880000   5242880000 ONLINE  /data/oradata/test/p02prt.dbf

 

After I resize the datafile the below the sql is  giving me the output below:

  9            1.0486E+10   5242880000 ONLINE  /data/oradata/test/p02prt.dbf

 

Someone help me.

 

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Looks like it went through successfully. To confirm, check your ALERT.LOG file.

BYTES - Current size in bytes; 0 if inaccessible
CREATE_BYTES - Size when created, in bytes

Best regards.
