Monitor database size

From the time I was an APPS DBA on largest EBS project in Croatia, I learned that monitoring database has important role of any DBA task. This is not only because of storage planning but also to see if anything irregular is happening in database. Here is the true story and how I managed that unpleasant situation and help developers to find their bugs and calm down managers about capacity planning and budgeting!

All here mentioned (including data) are real values from one EBS instance so many experienced APPS DBA may compare their sizes with here shown and make some conclusions.

The story

At the beginning, for the non experienced EBS people let me tell that in EBS 11.5.10.2 there are more then 22.100 tables in database, so knowing them or monitoring (like it is on systems with several hundred tables) is more then not possible without good tool or some automated help.

Case nr. 1.

The problem arise when my EBS instance grow in two months for more then 50%, from 105 GB to 155GB. I have create SR and ask them what should I suspect on and get an answer: what has grow up from previous period? I was astonished that they have no clue for their lead product what could really grow so fast. The best of all was when a lady from SR said: "The best should be that you contact your application provider about details what is really growing!"... !??

The situation was outrageous when my database fall in severity 1, which was direct circumstance of uncontrolled grow of some tables (which should be purged and controlled in any mean)! Situation from that moment look like:
Top 5 objects by NUMBER of records row. Monitored periods 20070901-20070701

GL               GL_JE_LINES                              TABLE                          2.510,63     1.330,00         112,65

After enabling some purging concurrents, as I was having 24x7 Oracle people on site, and they didn’t show any special interest about my complaints on database grow subject, I left this case beside for "some better time".

Case nr. 2.

This time came when 7 months later, database size raised from 85GB to 250 GB with average growing of 30-40 GB per month (with every month bigger grow!). Situation from that moment looks like:

Now with DSS tool it is very easy to see that GL_JE_LINES is growing very rapidly (first in Top 5 for longer period!) without any known reason. In that time I was having some primitive SQLs for monitoring size and with this primitive tool I saw that GL_JE_LINES growing-I was not aware how fast and what is the trend of grow. Unfortunatelly I was not aware what else is growing and the impact of that to the performance.

When I say my findings to Oracle people, firstly they defend that our employees have entered manually all those entries. After some math calculation, because number or inserted records was really huge, it was obvious that this is not possible to do manually in such a short period. After that I contacted directly Oracle’s lead developer. He realize very soon that "Oracle feature" was in our environment reproduced as a bug.

The feature is that Oracle automatically tries book out unallocated items in the general ledger. This is done through one concurrent which runs every night (right now I cannot remember the name). This concurrent is programmed to work in a way that firstly inserts unallocated items and when finds out that there are irresolvable errors, it insert all inserted items again with contra sign, creating in this case two times of all unallocated items on every job. If I say that in our database we have huge number of such an unknown items, every night GL_JE_LINES was getting bigger and bigger without reason. And users were complaining. So I was the initiator of bug resolving without knowledge what is going on!

In that moment I was determent to start reacting regardless all! This is the time I wrote first version of Database Size Stat solution. All after is nice history….

The solution

Database Size Stat (DSS) solution is set of two tables and one package. Role of package (db_size_pkg) is to collect data from database and use as common storage for all exposed procedures. Collection is taken on some regular basis into one table (db_size). In mine case 2 months were enough for my needs…but you can make run it more often if you want.

When data are collected (for at least two different dates), then with many other procedures from db_size_pkg package anyone it is easy to see anything about database size: size, grow, trend, history comparison, new/dropped objects and all other possible statistic in database which I ound interesting.

DSS is tested against 10/11g databases and is not compatible with lower versions of Oracle because analytic function calls that I use in package.

The implementation

Implementation is really easy and takes only 4 steps.
  1. Create db_size.tbl index organized table 
  2. Create db_size_gtt.tbl global temporary table
  3. Install db_size_pkg.pks package source
  4. Install db_size_pkb.plb wrapped package body (10g and onwards)
  5. If you want you to automate the process of taking snapshots (I recommend that) you may do that through ordinary Oracle job. This example is based on one month window:
    DECLARE
      X NUMBER;
    BEGIN
      SYS.DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT
      ( job       => X
       ,what      => 'db_size_pkg.create_snapshot;'
       ,next_date => to_date('01.09.2008 00:01:00','dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi:ss')
       ,interval  => 'TRUNC(LAST_DAY(SYSDATE)) + 1+1/1440'
       ,no_parse  => FALSE
      );
      SYS.DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Job Number is: ' || to_char(x));
    COMMIT;
    END;
All those objects should be placed in schema with enough privileges to compile package. There is no need to accent that SYS schema may be gracefully avoided as much as possible for purposes like this. Reason is more then known...

The common part

Several things are conditio sine qua non to do before running any other procedure.

"create_snapshot" procedure

The whole snapshot is done through single procedure - create_snapshot. Create snapshot iterate through dba_segments view and collect statistic on all segment_names. Runing the procedure is very easy:
PROCEDURE create_snapshot (p_period in varchar2 DEFAULT 'TODAY');

However, running snapshots should be taken with sysdba role user or user with enough privileges to run select queries on many dba_ views.

Because snapshot is connected with period in all following text I’ll referenced snapshot as term of period.
If no p_period is not set then sysdate is taken as default.

Period in all examples and varchar2 type of data and always in format YYYYMMDD regardless NLS settings of database/instance/session you run from. In this way you'll always get the correct sort order and less formatting functions in result outputs.

In mine case I was initially restoring database from 1st July 2007 to 1st November 2008 in two moths periods, taking snapshot one by one. That was very annoying work, but beside checking backups and RMAN catalogs (you have done that of course!?), it was essential to get initial data to start using DSS with full lungs.

handle "create_snapshot" errors

If you run "create_snapshot" with non sysdba role user, some of objects might not be accessible. In previous version the whole snapshot action was roll backed. From version 1.4 in such a cases, analyzed object get a number of records "-1" and size "0" and procedure continue to run. This allows DBA for later select of such an objects and grant appropriate right to user that run snapshot.

Beside that, if you run "create_snapshot" procedure from sqlplus like tool, in a case of any error you get a complete description of error. You can achieve this in a way:
SQL> set serveroutput on size 123456;
SQL>  exec db_size_pkg.create_snapshot;

"nls_num" number format variable

Number formatting is presented through nls_num variable declared in public part of db_size_pkg. Initial value is based on Croatian NLS number format…but you can change to USA format easy in a way:
nls_num VARCHAR2(30) := 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = '',.'''; 

Example:
  SQL> begin
    2    db_size_pkg.nls_num :=  'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = '',.''';
    3    db_size_pkg.dropped_objects();
    4    db_size_pkg.nls_num :=  'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = ''.,''';
    5    db_size_pkg.dropped_objects();

The core procedures

First an main procedure is get_db_size. The main purpose is to show in variety of outputs which describes size of database through periods.
PROCEDURE get_db_size (p_period        IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null, 
                       p_list_tblspace IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'N');

Examples:    exec db_size_pkg.get_db_size;
                same as
                  exec db_size_pkg.get_db_size(null,'N');   
             exec db_size_pkg.get_db_size(null,'T');
             exec db_size_pkg.get_db_size(null,'H');
             exec db_size_pkg.get_db_size('20080501'); 
                 same as
                   exec db_size_pkg.get_db_size('20080501,'T');
                 same as
                   exec db_size_pkg.get_db_size('20080501','N'); 
             exec db_size_pkg.get_db_size('20080501,'H');

If no parameter is taken then this is the result:

==========================================================================================================

Ass you can see, with such an output all important data on the global level-database. Size grow, grow trend, number of records, records trend and very interesting number of records for 1 MB grow and grow trend. As you can see this procedure gives you very easy way to predict database grow in the future. In our case the main point was contract. So if you connect number of contracts in certain date it is really easy to predict how many MB or records will be if number of contracts grow for 10%.

Another way is to run get_db_size with some p_period parameter value. According parameter is taken some additional output data are shown:
SQL> exec db_size_pkg.get_db_size('20080501');

Such an output gives very nice view on tablespace statistic in chosen period.

If you put "H" parameter with period in front then you get the whole history of all tablespaces in that period:

"periods" procedure

To see the list of periods (list of taken snapshots) use periods procedure.
PROCEDURE periods;

SQL> exec db_size_pkg.periods;
Periods
--------
20070701
20070901
20071101
20080101
20080301
20080501
20080701
20080802
20080901
20081001
20091201
========

"get_last_period" function

Another procedure that deals with periods is get_last_period. This which returns last period in db_size table (last snapshot). If you use p_period parameter then function returns penultimate period.
FUNCTION get_last_period (p_period IN VARCHAR DEFAULT NULL
                         ) RETURN VARCHAR2;

Example:
  20091201          db_size_pkg.get_last_period;
  20080301          db_size_pkg.get_last_period('20080501');

null as parameter for period

In all procedures where period is parameter, if you leave it as null then last two periods are taken. That was very convenient to me because mostly queries was run against last two snapshots/periods.
Another limitation is that period1 must be greater then period2...but this is checked in each procedure internally and result with appropriate error message in any wrong usage.

New/dropped objects procedures

Monitoring of new and dropped objects are performed through two procedures with the similar names. Third one both_objects is union of first two. Showing it's output will explain the output result of all of them:
PROCEDURE new_objects (p_period1 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                       p_period2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                       p_segment_type IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null) ;

PROCEDURE dropped_objects (p_period1 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                           p_period2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                           p_segment_type IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null) ;

PROCEDURE both_objects (p_period1 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                        p_period2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                        p_segment_type IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null) ;

Examples:
  exec db_size_pkg.both_objects;
  exec db_size_pkg.both_objects('20080501','20080301');
  exec db_size_pkg.both_objects(null,null,'TABLE PARTITON');
  exec db_size_pkg.both_objects('20091201','20070701','LOBSEGMENT');

SQL> exec db_size_pkg.both_objects('20080501','20080301');

If you compare this output with grow size from get_db_size procedure's output, you’ll see that these numbers will allmost never be the same because many objects that were not dropped or are new, are growing or lessen, so this is where difference comes from. These procedures were used for quick analyze if some indexes are missing or some tables dropped.
All three wider examples can be downloaded from:
  • new_objects example
  • dropped_objects example
  • both_objects example

"get_segment_type_size" procedure

What is get_db_size on database level, this procedure is for segments. When I say segments I mean on segment_type values from dba_segments view.

Procedure has only one parameter-segment_type. Here is the output for
   PROCEDURE get_segment_type_size (p_segment_type IN VARCHAR2);

SQL> exec db_size_pkg.get_segment_type_size('TABLE');

What is also practical to this kind of analyze is that you can easy calculate database grow based on number of records of such an segment type (REC/MB and TR REC/MB columns).

List of possible segments can be easily retrieved as:
select distinct segment_type from db_size where period=&p_period
Example can be downloaded from txt file

The tablespace part

Three procedures deals with tablespace statistic. As mentioned before, global look is always the best point to start investigation. So after get_db_size this is second set of procedures that DBA should analyze in searching for problems.

"grow_hist_one_tblspc" procedure

Main procedure is grow_hist_one_tablespace which is the core procedure for other two.
PROCEDURE grow_hist_one_tblspc (p_tablespace_name IN VARCHAR2); 

Example:

SQL> exec db_size_pkg.grow_hist_one_tblspc('APPS_TS_INTERFACE');

Idea of this output is to isolate output to one particular tablespace and see grow history.
Example can be downloaded from txt file

"n" procedures

For all produres that have "n" in its name, "n" represent number of output rows/elemnts to show. In all cases can be avoided and use default value for particular procedure. Only in these two examples n=100000 means "all tablesapces" to facilitate user command interface (this was convinient to me).

It is nice to see that column beside periods shows tablespace percentage in database size. TEMP and UNDO tablespaces are not excluded in DSS tool in any output..

"top_n_size_grow_hist_tblspc" procedure

This procedure shows tablespaces ordered by its grow (TREND MB colum).

                                       p_period2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,

"top_n_size_perc_hist_tblspc" procedure

This procedure shows tablespaces ordered by its percentage grow (TREND % colum). This one is interesting becase some small tablespaces may explode and you’ll never easy know that this happening without this kind of output. Percentage grow order may very differ from size grow order!

The "top_n" segment procedures

Four procedures of these type are third level of global scope when analyze database grow. They show trend in plain table output with minimal data. Idea is to clear up the main thing: grow in size, grow in percent, grow in records and records percentage grow on segment any level.

"top_n_size_grow" procedure

Order of segments are based on "grow [MB]" column.
PROCEDURE top_n_size_grow (p_period1 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null, 
                           p_period2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null, 
                           n IN pls_integer DEFAULT 100); 
                              

Examples:
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_size_grow;
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_size_grow ('20080501','20080301');
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_size_grow ('20080501','20080301',10);

It is really important to understand that some small segments (lower then 10 MB in EBS is peace of cake so they are not counted in output!) may explode very silently and this is really nice view to catch them! In this example it is obviously that grow of "DR$" indexes is probably connected with physical grow of parent table or in case when large records are dropped without proper rebuilding of indexes.

"top_n_rec_grow" procedure

Order of segments are based on "REC_GROW" column. "REC_GROW" column tells how much records has been grown in monitored period.
PROCEDURE top_n_rec_grow (p_period1 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                          p_period2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                          n IN pls_integer DEFAULT 100);

Examples:
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_rec_grow;

The segment hist procedures

These are the lowest level of statistic with most detail of each segment-the whole history of it’s presence in database. They all are based on one core procedure (like in tblspc part)-grow_hist_one_segment.

"grow_hist_one_segment" procedure

Similar as in tablespaces, this is core procedure for all "hist" based procedures that deal with segments. It shows all needed data to monitor trend and cumulative numbers in total and percentage for size and records as well. Idea is to have most detailed viws on one segment level for all the periods.
PROCEDURE grow_hist_one_segment (p_owner IN VARCHAR2,
                                 p_segment_name IN VARCHAR2,
                                 p_segment_type IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'TABLE');

Like in previous section there are four procedures that do the rest of jobs.

"top_n_size_grow_hist" procedure

Similar as top_n size_grow but here every segment is present instead of one row with full history.
PROCEDURE top_n_size_grow_hist (p_period1 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                                p_period2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                                n IN pls_integer DEFAULT 10);

Here is important to notice that numbers that counts are in monitored periods (colored in red) so order of segments is based on their values (regardless they have now or before)!

All others numbers shows only it’s history in database until recent snapshot. All mentioned here will be share the same logic in other three "hist" procedures.
Example can be downloaded from txt file

"top_n_size_perc_hist" procedure

Similar as top_n size_perc but every segment is present instead of one row with full table history.
PROCEDURE top_n_size_perc_hist (p_period1 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                                p_period2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                                n IN pls_integer DEFAULT 10);
                                                                   

Examples:
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_size_perc_hist;
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_size_perc_hist ('20080501','20080301');
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_size_perc_hist ('20080501','20080301',3);
Because showing real example will take to much space, full example can be downloaded from txt file

"top_n_rec_grow_hist" procedure

Similar as top_n_rec_grow but every segment is present instead of one row with full table history.
PROCEDURE top_n_rec_grow_hist (p_period1 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                               p_period2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                               n IN pls_integer DEFAULT 10);

Examples:
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_rec_grow_hist;
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_rec_grow_hist ('20080501','20080301');
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_rec_grow_hist ('20080501','20080301',3);
Because showing real example will take to much space full example can be downloaded from txt file

"top_n_rec_perc_hist" procedure

Similar as top_n_rec_perc but every segment is present instead of one row with full table history.
PROCEDURE top_n_rec_perc_hist (p_period1 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                               p_period2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT null,
                               n IN pls_integer DEFAULT 10);

Examples:
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_rec_perc_hist;
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_rec_perc_hist ('20080501','20080301');
  exec db_size_pkg.top_n_rec_perc_hist ('20080501','20080301',3);
Again, because showing real example will also take to much space, full example can be downloaded from txt file

The "top_n_tables" ever/now procedures

Last four procedures that deals with size or number of records are based on "biggest ever" or "biggest now". "Biggest ever" means biggest in all periods and "biggest now" mean biggest in last taken snapshot. All is done for size and records with history type of output.

All these procedures deal only with table segments because (beside partitions which had by me less important meanings) these segments would really be most interesting to keep highly under control.
Idea is to monitor kings and aces in database …

"top_n_tables_by_size_ever" procedure

PROCEDURE top_n_tables_by_size_ever (n in pls_integer default 10);
Because showing real example can be downloaded from txt file

"top_n_tables_by_records_ever" procedure

PROCEDURE top_n_tables_by_rec_ever (n in pls_integer default 10);
Example will take to much space example can be downloaded from txt file

"top_n_tables_by_size_now" procedure

PROCEDURE top_n_tables_by_size_now (n in pls_integer default 10);
Example will also take to much space so full example can be downloaded from txt file

"top_n_tables_by_records_now" procedure

PROCEDURE top_n_tables_by_rec_now (n in pls_integer default 10);
Example will take to much space example can be downloaded from txt file

The end

I hope that you had enough patience to come to this point and see all benefits of DSS tool. Even thought this tool is free for use, if you find it interesting please let me know…especially if you have made some improvements or found some bugs.

All implementation files (mentioned before) are packed together in one RAR file

If you want to play with procedures and have no data in db_size table, in rar file are the same data as in all examples, exported with Oracle expdp utility. Used PARFILE exp_db_size.dat is also in rar, so you can very easy import data in any schema you like.

If you want to analyze all examples locally (or compare with your EBS instance!) all data are also packed in one RAR file

Cheers!

Zagreb u srcu!
