Here are some nice queries I have used for years:
This reports the amount of data and indexes for each storage engine:
SELECT IFNULL(B.engine,'Total') "Storage Engine", CONCAT(LPAD(REPLACE(FORMAT(B.DSize/POWER(1024,pw),3),',',''),17,' '),' ',SUBSTR(' KMGTP',pw+1,1),'B') "Data Size", CONCAT(LPAD(REPLACE(FORMAT(B.ISize/POWER(1024,pw),3),',',''),17,' '),' ',SUBSTR(' KMGTP',pw+1,1),'B') "Index Size", CONCAT(LPAD(REPLACE(FORMAT(B.TSize/POWER(1024,pw),3),',',''),17,' '),' ',SUBSTR(' KMGTP',pw+1,1),'B') "Table Size" FROM (SELECT engine,SUM(data_length) DSize,SUM(index_length) ISize,SUM(data_length+index_length) TSize FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema NOT IN ('mysql','information_schema','performance_schema') AND engine IS NOT NULL GROUP BY engine WITH ROLLUP) B,
(SELECT 3 pw) A ORDER BY TSize;
This reports the amount of data and indexes for each database:
SELECT DBName,CONCAT(LPAD(FORMAT(SDSize/POWER(1024,pw),3),17,' '),' ',SUBSTR(' KMGTP',pw+1,1),'B') "Data Size",CONCAT(LPAD(FORMAT(SXSize/POWER(1024,pw),3),17,' '),' ',SUBSTR(' KMGTP',pw+1,1),'B') "Index Size",CONCAT(LPAD(FORMAT(STSize/POWER(1024,pw),3),17,' '),' ',SUBSTR(' KMGTP',pw+1,1),'B') "Total Size" FROM (SELECT IFNULL(DB,'All Databases') DBName,SUM(DSize) SDSize,SUM(XSize) SXSize,SUM(TSize) STSize FROM (SELECT table_schema DB,data_length DSize,index_length XSize,data_length+index_length TSize FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema NOT IN ('mysql','information_schema','performance_schema')) AAA GROUP BY DB WITH ROLLUP) AA,
(SELECT 3 pw) BB ORDER BY (SDSize+SXSize);
This reports the amount of data and indexes for each database by storage engine:
SELECT Statistic,DataSize "Data Size",IndexSize "Index Size",TableSize "Table Size" FROM (SELECT IF(ISNULL(table_schema)=1,10,0) schema_score,IF(ISNULL(engine)=1,10,0) engine_score,IF(ISNULL(table_schema)=1,'ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ',table_schema) schemaname,IF(ISNULL(B.table_schema)+ISNULL(B.engine)=2,"Storage for All Databases",IF(ISNULL(B.table_schema)+ISNULL(B.engine)=1,CONCAT("Storage for ",B.table_schema),CONCAT(B.engine," Tables for ",B.table_schema))) Statistic,CONCAT(LPAD(REPLACE(FORMAT(B.DSize/POWER(1024,pw),3),',',''),17,' '),' ',SUBSTR(' KMGTP',pw+1,1),'B') DataSize,CONCAT(LPAD(REPLACE(FORMAT(B.ISize/POWER(1024,pw),3),',',''),17,' '),' ',SUBSTR(' KMGTP',pw+1,1),'B') IndexSize,CONCAT(LPAD(REPLACE(FORMAT(B.TSize/POWER(1024,pw),3),',',''),17,' '),' ',SUBSTR(' KMGTP',pw+1,1),'B') TableSize FROM (SELECT table_schema,engine,SUM(data_length) DSize,SUM(index_length) ISize,SUM(data_length+index_length) TSize FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema NOT IN ('mysql','information_schema','performance_schema') AND engine IS NOT NULL GROUP BY table_schema,engine WITH ROLLUP) B,
(SELECT 3 pw) A) AA ORDER BY schemaname,schema_score,engine_score;
Please notice at the end of each query there is an inline query (SELECT 3 pw)
. The pw is simply an exponent used as a power of 1024. Here is how to use this:
(SELECT 0 pw)
reports in bytes
(SELECT 1 pw)
reports in kilobytes
(SELECT 2 pw)
reports in megabytes
(SELECT 3 pw)
reports in gigabytes
(SELECT 4 pw)
reports in terabytes
(SELECT 5 pw)
reports in petabytes (If you got this much data, write me or at least post the display in DBA.SE. I'm sure we'd all love to see that)
Give it a Try !!!
As for table limits, here are those limits for MyISAM and InnoDB.
Best Answer
If you enable MySQL with innodb_file_per_table, each InnoDB table will have its own dedicated tablespace. The system tablespace file, bwetter known as ibdata1, will grow very slowly.
If innodb_file_per_table is disable, everything and its grandmother goes into ibdata1. That will grow quickly.
If you are not using innodb_file_per_table, you need to rearchitect InnoDB's infrastructure. This will give you a limit of 2TB per table instead of 2TB for all InnoDB. This is the case for ext3. On ext4, the table size can be up to 16TB.
Please see my past posts on how to do that
