ORA-01654: unable to extend index PDMADMIN.HOLDERTOCONTENT$COMPOSITE4 by 512 in tablespace INDX
I've gotten this error message a few times now this year. Today, there was a 2 hour window between the time that the hard-working Europe team found the error, and us lazy administrators sleeping in the US were able to do something about it. In our company, we must forward the message to the DBA team for them to fix it.
But I would like to get proactive with this message if possible. We're just now upgrading from 9.1 to 10.2. Is there some OOTB functionality in 10.2 that will send a message before hitting the limit? Or perhaps something within PTC System Monitor?
With my current knowledge (9.1-based), the only thing I can think of is to periodically check the tablespace sizes. Perhaps create a query that only returns tables that are over 90% or 95% full? I don't know if that is a good solution or not.
What are your thoughts about trying to prevent this error from happening in the first place?
