We have been getting
ORA-1652: unable to extend temp segment by 128 in tablespace TEMP 
error.

We enabled the trace and found the sql_id (select query) which was hitting the tablespace issue. The application user, machine and program details were identified. However, we were not sure which procedure was triggering this SQL statement. We understand that there is a column named "TOP_LEVEL_SQL_ID" in v$active_session_history. But I understand that we are not expected to use the tables provided through the diagnostic tuning pack.

Is there a way that I can find the top level sql during the runtime or through any other dynamic or fixed views.

We generated the trace through "1652 EVENTS ERRORSTACK LEVEL 3". This has bunch sql_id and statements mentioning parent and child cursor. I am unable to figure out the top level sql query.

Please help on this.

Use Statspack.

Can you please help me here? I am not sure which section to look at.

I will provide the scenario. There is a SELECT statement hitting the tablespace issue. This is being triggered by a DBMS_STATS procedure. I figured out that the SELECT statement is encountering issue? How can I figure out the PL/SQL procedure which is triggering this SQL statement.

If you upload the statspack report that covers the time of the problem, perhaps someone can assist. If it really is dbms_stats that is hitting the issue, you don't have may options. Why not just make the temporary tablespace bigger?

As a matter of interest, what does the following yield?
SQL> SELECT SUM(bytes)/1048576
     FROM dba_temp_files
     WHERE tablespace_name='TEMP';

gazzag - The output is 10000.

LNossov - Couldn't get you. I can see the columns program_id, program_line# in both v$sql, stats$sql_summary. Will this help me to get the top_level_sql_id. Or is there something else that I can get out of this?

John - I can make the temp tablespace big. But I am not sure how much big. The explain plan shows that the estimated size is 36G. But I am not sure if that can fix the issue. The reason I am trying to find the top level sql is, it is not evident how the sql is getting triggered. If I can get the top_level_sql then I can work drill this issue down further.

It is your top level procedure. program_id = object_id in dba_objects.
