Shrink Compact operation and dbms_space monitoring scripts

edited Dec 16, 2015 9:39AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 6 commentsAnswered

Oracle 11.1.0.7, single instance on RHEL 5.8

I have a shrink compact that has been running for almost five days now, against a 160GB table with 71 million rows.  I have been using dbms_space.space_usage and unused_space (MOS doc id 242090.1) to monitor this, but I am not certain what the output should ultimately look like when this completes.  The FULL_BLOCKS column has been increasing for the most part, but the four columns indicating the number of blocks free by category (FS1=0 to 25% free; FS4=75 to 100% free) has been making very slow progress.  There are no lob objects in this table.

Howdy, Stranger!
