RE: Oracle7.3.4 - Tablespace question

Mark,

Thanks for the answer, OK db_files set at 30. However I don't think I may have explained correctly. I created the tablespace with a number of datafiles, everything went fine I observed the physical files being created. However I guess on the finalization on the last file the database gave the error DB_FILES exceeded. OK, I thought, so I had a look if the Tablespace existed, which it at present does not.
So I had a look, the physical files still do, and the control files appear to be newer. My question is does the tablespace exist? Just waiting for me to change the DB_FILES parameter, but is just not available. Or it does not exist and hence should I restart the database there will be no tablespace.

Would you know?
Many Thanks
Denham

Well, it really depends on whether there is any contents in the tablespaces
that you want. If you just want to get rid of the tablespaces in question,
then startup nomount and alter those datafiles and tablespaces offline. Then
you will be able to drop them offline including contents.

What is your db_files value?

Subject: Oracle7.3.4 - Tablespace question

Hello Folks,

Here goes, I have now added this tablespace, however it errored out with DB_FILES exceeded.

So this tablespace does not exist on the database, even though the files were created.

What will happen if I restart the database? Because the control files appear to have been changed.

I have now discovered that the database is infact still busy cleaning out the original tablespaces, so a bit of a wait.

So please advise on the above, it would be nice if the new tablespace is not part of the database.

Regards

Denham
