Thinking operationally, there are always a myriad number of methods to track 
usage and report on UNDO statistics.  However, if attempts have been made to 
increase these resources, and problems still remain, I have never seen a time 
when such issues can be resolved WITHOUT looking into the root causes.  
 
Most of the time, a particular query or combination of queries will be the 
issue.  Rather than throwing disk resources at the problem, it is usually 
necessary to first determine what is running when it occurs, and find the 
source or origination of these jobs.  
 
Inevitably, a particular query (or sometimes the same query running 
concurrently) will be the cause and will have to be tuned.  We have canned 
queries which will report on ALL tablespace full conditions which I can supply, 
but I really think you need to investigate the cause before heading in that 
direction...

Hi everybody
 
I have seen several time ORA-1555 error in few of the Prod Database. SOme of 
them have very big UNDO tablespaces. All are 9i Databases. What are the other 
option that need to be checked for such issue beside increasing the space as 
some of the database has UNDO tablespace around 50-150G
 
Is it good to create new undo tablespace and make it default in such scenario 
and later on dropped the old. Do somebody has set of UNDO checking query that 
can be ran at some particular point to really see if that big UNDO are really 
been used so that it can be resized. 
 
I am thankful for any suggestion for monitoring such ORA-1555 as well as query 
to check UNDO segment space.
 
TIA
Sanjay
