SYSAUX tablespace growing out of control

edited May 21, 2012 8:00PM in Database Administration (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered
Hi Folks,

Question regarding the dbms_stats.purge_stats utility.  My tablespace has grown to about 20GB with 18GB of that being data from SYS.WRI$_OPTSTAT_HISTHEAD_HISTORY.  I believe we are encountering the bug where the automatic purging does not work because the MMON process that submits it times out since it is so large.  I have tried manually submitting the dbms_stats.purge_stats query and it takes forever to run.  I have devised a work around and would like to know if anyone sees any issues with it.   I would also like to note that this database is part of an Oracle E-Business Suite environment. 

Howdy, Stranger!
