Alex,
Yes you are right if temp tablespace is 'TEMPORARY'. The situation he has described is pointing that temp tablespace is 'PERMANENT' and thats why his extents were not released/coalesced.

Besides , with temp TEMPORARY tablespace , there are problems that space is not completely released even after bouncing database and you have to offline and online temp tablespace to get release used space upto 99%. I am talking about 7GB+ tempspace on 7.3.4.4(1999) NCR UNIX 3.02 and that was my personal experience at that time.

Rafiq

I disagree. pctincrease should be 0, you do not need to coalesce tablespace if it is temporary. Segments in temporary tablespace are not dropped after SQL statement execution ends. But if you want to drop all segments from temporary tablespace the easiest way is:

alter tablespace <tablespace name> pctincrease <current value of pctincrease>

To resolve it now:
alter tablespace temp coalesce;

for all the time set pctincrease to 1 (if 0) of temp tablespace

alter tablespace temp default storage(pctincrease 1);

Hi.

I have my daily routine to check segmetn whose next extent will not fit in the single largest free extent in the tablespace. This morning I found the my temporary tablespace is on the list .

We have 1624M assigned for the temp tablespace. As my understatd temp tablespace will extend itself as necessary and drop itself when operation is done.

I just wonder I should increase the size or wait to see because we just have our application updated.
