RE: Urgent: Retrieving Disk Space

SYSTEM @ 4GB !!!! i have never seen this kind of size for a system datafile UNLESS ..
objects other than the data dictionary reside in system tablespace ...

if that's the case... u have to cleanup all objects which does not belong to SYS/SYSTEM and are in the
SYSTEM tablespace ..

TEMP will keep the space occupide even if a transaction failed.. , sometimes on my version 7.3.4
i have to bounce the DB to cleanup the temp segments...

also, after you clean up the SYSTEM tablespaces... you should switch off the autoextend for SYSTEM's datafile too.

HTH PS: this is all assuming that the SYSTEM01.dbf does indeed belong to the SYSTEM tablespace. !!!
