high water mark??

[Trina]

I want to reduce the size of the tablespace. Before I do that, I want to see
the high water mark of the tablespace. What is the object name that I can query
to find the high water mark?

Tablespaces don't have a HWM. What exactly are you trying to do?

[Sharma]

You could see the HWM for all the tables in tha Tablespace.
Sum this for all the tables.

[pando]

you can see a sort of HWM for datafiles



rem
rem Remarks: minimal size of a datafile is 2 Oracle blocks
rem resizing should always be a multiple of Oracle blocks

rem Requirements: select on sys.dba_data_files
rem select on sys.dba_free_space
rem select on sys.v_$parameter
