Step 1: Determine how much disk space will be required.

SQL> select name from v$database; NAME --------AZARDB

Calculate total space for all datafiles within database

SQL> select DF.TOTAL/1048576 "DataFile Size Mb",LOG.TOTAL/1048576 "Redo Log Size Mb",CONTROL.TOTAL/1048576 "Control File Size Mb", (DF.TOTAL + LOG.TOTAL + CONTROL.TOTAL)/1048576 "Total Size Mb" from dual,(select sum(a.bytes) TOTAL from dba_data_files a) DF, (select sum(b.bytes) TOTAL from v$log b) LOG,(select sum((cffsz+1)*cfbsz) TOTAL from x$kcccf c) CONTROL ; DataFile Size Mb Redo Log Size Mb ---------------- ---------------Control File Size Mb Total Size Mb -------------------- ------------1310 150 18.59375 1478.59375

Calculate space for list of datafiles within primary database

SQL> select DF.TOTAL/1048576 "DataFile Size Mb", LOG.TOTAL/1048576 "Redo Log Size Mb", CONTROL.TOTAL/1048576 "Control File Size Mb", (DF.TOTAL + LOG.TOTAL + CONTROL.TOTAL)/1048576 "Total Size Mb" from dual, (select sum(a.bytes) TOTAL from dba_data_files a where tablespace_name in ('SYSTEM','SYSAUX','UNDO','USERS')) DF, (select sum(b.bytes) TOTAL from v$log b) LOG, (select sum((cffsz+1)*cfbsz) TOTAL from x$kcccf c) CONTROL ; DataFile Size Mb Redo Log Size Mb ---------------- ---------------Control File Size Mb Total Size Mb -------------------- ------------1165 18.59375 150 1333.59375
