Large size of TEMP01.DBF

Hi All,

I was taking cold backup of my database by simply copying and archiving the dbf files when I noticed that TEMP01.DBF has grown upto 8 GB.

For now, I've two queries:
- How can I determine the operation that caused this file to grow?

• I know that this file is used for temporary operations; so can I simply skip (or maybe delete) this file and archive rest of the files?

Regards,
