I am running Oracle 7.3 server. I have three data files roughly
around a gig each. I have 200 tables inside the datafiles (in no
particular order). These tables are using around two gigs. I deleted
all contents (not the tables themselves) of the tables (while leaving
the actual empty tables there). When I view how much space is being
used by the datafiles, it is still two gigs. I can't figure out why.
I have deleted all the tables so that the datafiles report zero space
used, but when I import the data back in (just the empty tables) it
jumps back up to two gigs. note: I just delete all the tables(with a
script) I have not yet dropped the tablespace(and I would rather not
if possible). Can anybody help me with this, I would greatly
appreciate it. Thank you in advance.
