You can try
alter database datafile <datafilename> offline drop; At that point you should be able to drop the TS.

Hi all

Scenario

We lost a set of discs, they were only being used as a scratch pad and contained no production data.

About 10 tablespace was located on the disc.

The tablespace had in them partitioned tables by list and then sub portioned by hash.

I am having problems dropping the tablespaces including contents since it picks up that it is a partitioned table that contains segments in other tablespaces.

I have tried dropping the user with cascade but this tries to access the actual datafiles which is of course not reachable.
