thanks to the group for some excellent advice! I have removed the drop and commit statements and made the size bigger.
Any further enhancements possible?
CREATE TABLESPACE getreports
DATAFILE '/u02/oradata/GETREPS/getreports_DATA' SIZE 500M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 100M MAXSIZE UNLIMITED DEFAULT STORAGE (

                INITIAL 256K
                NEXT   128K
                MINEXTENTS 1
                MAXEXTENTS UNLIMITED
                PCTINCREASE 0)
                LOGGING
                ONLINE;

  • Temporary tablespace. CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE getreports_TEMP TEMPFILE '/u02/oradata/GETREPS/getreports_TEMP_DATA' SIZE 32M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 32M MAXSIZE UNLIMITED;
