How to Extend Tablespaces on SAP Oracle with BRtools

The purpose is this document is to show how to extend a database table space using BRTOOLS in LINUX environment and then verify whether the in the new data file has been added correctly or not.

Steps for Extend Tablespace :

1.  Check tablespaces before extend on SAP using tcode DB02 and check database size

select tablespace which is intend to extend (eg: PSAPSR3)


It shows the last datafile as the sr3.data18


2. Check using SQL command on OS and select datafile of tablespace

Login to SQL from the user <oraSID>

Erppi1# su orapi1
erppi1:orapi1 54>
erppi1:orapi1 53> sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL>
SQL> select file_name from dba_data_files;


Then It will display datafiles till the last.

Eg : /oracle/PI1/sapdata4/sr3_18/sr3.data18


3. Extend Tablespace on Oracle 

Log in to the operating system with a user who has authorize for Oracle DBA and then run the command BRTOOLS.

4. Verify the extended tablespace on SAP

Use DB02 and then refresh to get oracle space statistics.

 

Then select OK to confirm the action.





Then Check the status thorugh the DB02 and database size (new size is 302.97 GB)

Then check the extended tablespace and added datafile (PSAPSR3). New datafile has been added as sr3.data19


5. Check using SQL command on OS

Check Using SQL on OS and select the datafiles of tablespaces.

Login to SQL from the user <oraSID>

Erppi1# su orapi1
erppi1:orapi1 54>
erppi1:orapi1 53> sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL>
SQL> select file_name from dba_data_files;

Then It will display datafiles till the last.
Eg : /oracle/PI1/sapdata4/sr3_18/sr3.data19
