Hi...I am working with 10g R2 oracle (10.2.0.3)
My PGA_TARGET=500M but while sorting it uses 200M and if sorting size is bigger than 200M it move it to temp tablespace to do sorting.
can someone tell me why its not doing sorting in PGA though its value is 500M?

Please read & follow posting guidelines as stated in URL above
using CUT & PASTE post SELECT & results which prove the following:
>if sorting size is bigger than 200M it move it to temp tablespace to do sorting.
using sqlplus do the following:
SQL> set lines 150
SQL> select * from V_$PGA_TARGET_ADVICE;
then using CUT & PASTE along with <code tags> post results back here like below
1* select * from V_$PGA_TARGET_ADVICE
SQL> /
PGA_TARGET_FOR_ESTIMATE PGA_TARGET_FACTOR ADV BYTES_PROCESSED ESTD_EXTRA_BYTES_RW ESTD_PGA_CACHE_HIT_PERCENTAGE ESTD_OVERALLOC_COUNT

But not emphasized as you perfectly know to do it.
Anyway, do not post unsupported stuff to newbies

I will surely not do this, the only main point is that there are limits and the behaviour he saw is expected. If for one process this does not fit his requirements he can switch to manual mode.
