    TEMP Tablespace

    let's say we have users online using the database and I drop the TEMP tablespaces and recreate it.

    what happened if I dropped the TEMP tablespace while the user online???


    thanks

    ON 9I,

    you can't drop the default temporary tablespace so you have to create another one and issue:

    ALTER DATABASE DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE NEW_TEMP;


    ONCE YOU DO THAT, all of the users should be default to the new temp and now you are free to drop the old one.

    IS IT TRUE, Jeff???????

    I wouldn't know the answer to that. I wouldn't ever drop my temporary tablespace.

    You can create a new temp tablespace, change the temp tablespace to this, and then try to drop the first, but you'll have to be pacient, it will not happen immediatly unless no operations in course.
    I think I've done this once...
    ovidius over!

    Hi,

    I was experienced that if u don't check first in dba_segments
    that the temporary tablespace is clean from temporary segments and you drop the tablespace when it contains temporary segments ,your database suppose to crash casuse to SMON crash.

    Be careful!!

    Is it..?

    I took one rollbacksegment with large active transaction,
    to offline, still oracle allowed me ( I think it wrote the
    active "rollback information" to somewhereelse).

    What is wrong in expecting oracle to act same like Rollback
    on Temporary also?
