Oracle Server - Enterprise Edition - Version: 11.1.0.7 and later [Release: 11.1 and later ]
The purpose of this note is to provide insight on how space allocation ( v$asm_file.space column ) in ASM can be calculated depending on Allocation Unit size, redundancy and striping scheme.
There will be big space gap for Flashback logs in recovery destination diskgrop as the default redundancy and striping method for Flashback logs are "Mirror" and "High" and the way of how v$recovery_file_dest.space_used is calculated in ASM. As a result of this space gap, recovery destination clean up mechanism sometimes won't kick in even db_recovery_file_dest_size is used up.
db_recovery_file_dest_size should be calculated carefully by taking into redundancy, striping and AU boundary as it can cause database hung in a situation when archivelog can not be generated.
This note will be useful -
1. Calculate the exact size of a file in ASM environment.
2. Calculate v$recovery_file_dest.space_used for flashback logs and archived log files.

This script is provided for educational purposes only and not supported by Oracle Support Services. It has been tested internally, however, and works as documented. We do not guarantee that it will work for you, so be sure to test it in your environment before relying on it.
Proofread this script before using it! Due to the differences in the way text editors, e-mail packages and operating systems handle text formatting (spaces, tabs and carriage returns), this script may not be in an executable state when you first receive it. Check over the script to ensure that errors of this type are corrected.
ASM space allocation consideration
1. The space of each ASM file is allocated in Allocation Unit boundary - default 1M but can be specified at the creation of a diskgroup with an attribute.
2. Each file on ASM is created with a corresponding template either explictly or implictly depending on file type.
- Check v$asm_template
- Attribute can be altered.
SQL> alter diskgroup <diskgroup_name> alter template <template_name> attributes ( coarse ) ;
3. v$asm_file.bytes is calculated from v$asm_file.blocks * v$asm_file.block_size .
4. v$asm_file.block_size varies to the file type - online redo - 512 bytes, control file - 16K etc .
5. v$asm_file.space is calculated by taking into account of AU boundary, redundancy and striping width. See Useful SQL statement - SQL1.
- For FINE striping scheme with 128K, striping width is 8 AU (Allocation Units. )
- 1st 128K needs 1AU space allocation and 2nd 128K needs another 1AU, subsequently 1M with 128K striping width needs 8AU space allocation.
6. Big space gap between v$asm_file.bytes and v$asm_file.space can be seen if an ASM file is created with a combination of FINE striping and normal or high redundancy.
7. In Oracle instance side, v$recovery_file_dest.space_used only takes into account of AU boundary of v$asm_file.bytes, doesn't take into striping and redundancy.
- See Useful SQL satement - SQL2.
- This is mainly because v$asm_file.space does not mean all space in these extent is full.
- v$recovery_file_dest.space_used = sum(ceil (( v$asm_file.bytes + 1) / AU ) * AU )
8. But recovery destination cleanup mechanism will kick in by the usage of based on v$asm_file.space.
Useful SQL statement
SQL1： How v$asm_file.space is calculated from v$asm_file.bytes depending on striping and redundancy scheme of a diskgroup.
- Please note that space allocation on ASM diskgroup is based on v$asm_file.space, not from v$asm_file.bytes.
