OS block size和Oracle block size，查找OS Blocksize的方法

看过类似的文章，多数是讲的文件系统的blocksize，不知道这是否和Oracle block size有啥关系，我试着发现，即使是文件系统blocksize，Oracle blocksize 也可以比这个filesystem block size 小的。

SQL> select * from v$version;

从这里是不是可以说oracle block size 和 filesystem blocksize没什么直接的关系呢？

Linux: file Block size is selected at the time of high-level formatting。

==========================================================

The log block size is platform. specific, and can be found out using the following query: (size in bytes)

select max(lebsz) from x$kccle

most platforms have log block size of 512, but HPUX has 1k, and tru64 has blocksize of 2k if my memory serves me well.

===========================================================

Oracle给出的查找OS Block size的方法：

To find the OS Block size in windows.
Kindly run the below sql statement

select lebsz from x$kccle;
which gives the OS Block size.

In Unix:
Goto the directory $ORACLE_HOME/bin/ and run the command dbfsize. (is available on UNIX only)
Example: $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbfsize

You can find your log block size in bytes with the following query (connected as SYS or internal):
select distinct lebsz from x$kccle;

This is the unit in which you should set the log_checkpoint_interval parameter (otherwise known as the operating system block size). Some sample sizes are:

O/S Log Block Size
======= ==============
Solaris 512 bytes
HP-UX 1024 bytes
NT 512 bytes
OpenVMS 512 bytes
Digital UNIX 1024 bytes
To get it from the operating system, try grep DEV_BSIZE /usr/include/sys/param.h
