Hi Experts,
I have one basic question.
When we bring high water mark down
with following commands like:-
exp/imp
alter table tname shrink space;
alter table tname move tablespace;
Will it reclaim space physically on the disk also?


Thanks,
Varun

no, the space on the disk volume remains the same

The only way to reclaim (apart from dropping the tablespace) is to shrink (resize) the files.
