11G ODI Temp usage


OBIA 11g ODI Temporary Table Consume Large Tablespace, How To Purge These Tables ? (Doc ID 1572972.1) To BottomTo Bottom

APPLIES TO:

Business Intelligence Applications Consumer - Version 11.1.1.7.0 and later

Information in this document applies to any platform.

GOAL

There are some temporary tables consuming huge amounts of space in the DW_DATA tablespace.

The table's name listed as below:

C$_<Session ID number>.1GB

How can we purge these data? and when to purge these data ?

SOLUTION

These tables are automatically purged once the interface is run successfully.

If there are failed sessions, then this table is not dropped immediately. This helps in debugging the failed sessions.


At the end of the load plan which  is generated using Load Plan Generator (LPG), we have a step called Finalize Batch Load , under which there is a step called Clean Work and Flow Tables. This automatically drops any such stale tables that are older than 30 days. You can reduce this default of 30 days by changing the value that is passed to that scenario step, if you so desire. But with this setup, you normally do not have to worry about dropping such tables.


The temporary table is named after the session that is using it. So C$_2082500_2_0 corresponds to the session with id 2082500.
