If you can't bounce the database right away, turn off autoextend on the
datafile. If you haven't already.

Subject: RE: drop temp tablespace
Are you sure all users have been switched to the new temp ts? "the used size is still increasing" probably means there are still something going on the old temp ts. I will just bounce the db (if possible) and then drop the old temp.

Guang,
Thanks for your response.
Initially I had to 'drop tablespace temp including contents'. Currently it returns 0 for the query of select count(*) from dba_segments where tablespace_name = 'TEMP'. I can do 'drop tablespace temp' without including contents option. However the used size is still increasing.
