Delete Temp Datafiles

Hi all,
The temporary tablespace datafiles were old and occupy lot of space. Can I safely remove them or shall I backup them to disk.
Thanks.

Thanks.Do not need backup of temp tablespace,but you can create new temporary tablespace and delete old ts as
create temporary tablespace new_tempts tempfile 'tempfile_full_path' size <size> autoextend on next 30M;
alter database default temporary tablespace new_tempts;
drop tablespace old_ts_name;

Missing TEMP datafile

Not sure if I hit the right forum here.
ORACLE RDBMS Version: 10.2.0.1.0
I'm doing some 10g studying and came across recovering from non-critical files.
Now the various books (2) indicate that you should take some action when you startup the database.
However, when I delete the datafile making up the temp tablespace; at startup that file is just regenerated as;
With out going into all the details this action:
oracle@blue:/u1/app/oracle/oradata/qbase> rm -rf tempdijk01.dbf
(this is the datafile of the default temp tbs).
Lead to during db startup:

Re-creating tempfile /u1/app/oracle/oradata/qbase/tempdijk01.dbf
Q. are there other circumstances that might need interaction at db startup, like drop and recreate the
temp tbs is mount etc.?
Thanks.

Oracle tempfile happen to be very special datafile. The behavior of this file doesn't represent other datafiles of database.
If you remove a regular datafile from OS level, you will need to do recovery before you can open the database for use.

TEMP datafiles

We have 4 temp datafiles is one of our database and three are 99% and last one 99% full.
Solutions:
Let me know which solution is better
1. I just keep adding TEMP datafiles.
2. Delete the previous one and add the new one so that I can get some free space on disk.
3. Re boot the server so that all temp files gets empty and I don't need to do anything(its not possible becuase we have 24/7 datebase)...
Please give me your suggestions
Thanks

If the TEMP space is not being released for a long time, you could activate SMON by the below trick
SELECT PCT_INCREASE FROM DBA_TABLESPACES WHERE TABLESPACE='TEMP';
note the percentage
ALTER TABLESPACE TEMP DEFAULT STORAGE (PCTINCREASE 10);
It could be 10 or any number between 1 and 100.
wait for a while and return it back to the previously defined percentage
This will release the TEMP segments

How do I delete temp file amt3.log?

To reduce malware-related risks, I regularly delete Temp files (%tmp%)
I am unable to delete amt3.log even when no application runs on my PC
Based on a quick Google search, amt3.log seems to be an Adobe-related file
I am using Acrobat X Pro and Photoshop Elements 9
What settings should I change in Acrobat X Pro and/or Photoshop Elements 9 to be able to delete amt3.log?
Thank you

I also use Acrobat Pro X and the same file appears in Temp. I simply unlock it with "Unlocker 1.9.1", then delete the file. You can download "Unlocker 1.9.1" for FREE HERE. Keep in mind that the log file will keep recreating itself, so might be easiest to leave it alone.
After you install Unlocker, right click on any file that you cannot delete and select "unlocker" from the context menu. Then, highlight the program that is using/locking the file and select "unlock" at the bottom of the window. Voila!!! Now you can delete that pesky file. Hope this helps....

Deleting a datafile

In Oracle8i, how does one delete or drop a datafile? The file does not physically exist on disk. When I try to "create tablespace datafile 'foo' size 100m", it reports that it cannot process the statement because the "datafile already exists". It seems that I need to tell Oracle to delete the datafile before I can recreate it.

The "and datafiles" is not supported in 8i. Believe it or not, I think the prescribed method of deleting datafiles is to do so at the OS prompt (gulp!). Seems strange since Oracle creates the datafile via an SQL command (create tablespace <foo> datafile <fname>).

Deleting "Temp Folder" to Allow iTunes to Work But It Comes Back!

Can you please help me?
I am trying to install iTunes, and for some reason this time I have got the error "iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application."(I've downloaded iTunes before and have never had this problem before.
So basically, I have followed the trouble shooting for this error, the one where you dlete iTunesSetup.exe. and delete Temp Folder. However, when I dlete Temp, it keeps on coming back. I close any other window, try again, but same thing happens. I restart comp and come back to find it still there and the trouble shooting has not worked. Help me please!!!!!

Alright Raver, I'm giving you my clean install instructions. Please read them over before you step through them to be sure you understand them. Remember to follow the steps VERY carefully, otherwise you could cause harm to your PC.
1. Uninstall itunes/ipod/QT software. Delete any old installations you might have.
2. Reboot your PC
3. Re-download the itunes installer and QT and save this installer to your desktop
4. Go to C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Installations. You should see folders like {06EB3288-C5F4-4C73-8EEE-AC798668FF66}
5. Look in each of these folders for itunes.msi and delete the folder. Be careful to only delete the folders containing itunes.msi
6. Clean out your temp folders, Delete as much as you can in these folders except for the folders Cookies, History, Temporary Internet Files.
a. C:\windows\temp (if one exists)
b. C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\Local Settings\Temp
Sometimes installers will pick up old files or won’t delete their temporary files.
7. Go to http://www.download.com/3000-2094-881470.html and download the regcleaner. Unpack it and run it. This is a nice utility that will delete broken registry entries and create a file with them. This way if it deletes anything needed you can add it back. Note I never had to do this with using it for many years. Also it doesn't list XP but you'll be fine. I run XP on both.
8. Empty your recycle bin. Reboot your PC.
9. Now try to go and install everything again. I'd do QT first then follow with itunes. Remember to disable virus/firewall/privacy/web accelerators before launching the install.
If you still can't install then I might need a install log. However I'll give you those steps if these don't work.

You posted in the Classic forum for running OS 9 while under OS X. This not possible with the OS you show in your profile so you posted to the wrong forum.

TEMP datafiles for temporary tablespaces don't have same timestamp

Hi,
This is what I have done:
Installing 10G2 on XP PRO with sample database.
Tried to install Designer Repository with the Wizard, created a user for the toolkit, that failed.
Added 1 temp tablespace size 20Meg from OEM console.
Dropped cascade Toolkit schema owner and recreated it
Tried to install Designer Repository, that failed again
Added 1 temp tablespace size 1giga from OEM console, failed again to import
Dropped cascade Toolkit schema owner and recreated it
Tried to install Designer Repository, that failed again
Gave up for now: I have located a doc about installing manually by running scripts, will do as soon as I feel at ease with OEM.
Then I put the PC on snooze while database was up, crashed it.
Stopped the services, checked the logs, restarted manually and slowly, base up.
Now both extra TEMP datafiles are lagging behind, seen from Windows explorer, but the tablespaces are seen as online from oem, not seen from sqlplus dba_tablespaces view.
So the question is:
Are the TEMP datafiles supposed to stay in sync with the others or is it ok if they show timestamps dating three days back, provided there has not been any users transactions in the database?
I checked the 10G2 DBA online doc, but I can't find where it's mentioned.
Many thanks if you can help.

Hi,
Everything allright, they do show!
I'm a bit wary about resizing anything, maybe you remember the resizing bug for SYSTEM tablespace in version 7?
I have to beef up on DBA tricks.
Since I also have a 1 Giga Users tablespace, I'll do some heavy Inserting and Updating and Sorting see if that tickles the Temps.
Many thanks for your prompt reply.

Delete Temp DB Files

I run the SGEN and within this run the DB runs full.
Is it possible to delete temp files from SGEN in the DB or what can I do to reduce the size because the data which is wirtten is big.

There is nothing from DB side I can think of. If MaxDB were to create internal temporary files, it would automatically remove them later.
Regarding SGEN (the ABAP mass generation) itself, I have not heard of any temporary data in ABAP tables, but then I am not an expert in this area.
I would suggest that you describe how much space you needed (or how by how much the db did increase before reaching full state) and what your total db size and used size was before the SGEN.
If you want, I could then move this thread to the SAP Solution Manager forum, but it my well be just normal that you have to have a lot of free space if you are to compile all of your ABAP sources.

Can't delete temp destination

          I get weblogic.jms.common.JMSException: Destination is in use whenever I try to
          delete a temp queue. I narrowed it down to the following code, it just creates
          a temp dest and tries to delete it without ever using it: it still produces the
          exception:
          // create a temporary queue for the responses ( one per application )
          TemporaryQueue respQueue = queueSession.createTemporaryQueue();
          QueueReceiver respReceiver = queueSession.createReceiver ( respQueue );
          respReceiver = null;
          respQueue.delete();
          I tried everything: to force gc and finalizers right before calling delete() :
          still getting the same exception ( I'm running Weblogic 8.1 on Linux ). By the
          way temp dest works just fine when I use it: I just can never delete it. here's

          QueueSession.close() always worked: I just wanted to be able to create and delete
          temp destinations without closing the session. The problem was I completely forgot
          about MessageConsumer's close () ( QueueReceiver extends MessageConsumer ). Thanks

          P.S. Of course one shouldn't call and/or rely on gc() and runFinalizers() : I
          did it just for the investigation sake ;-)

TEMP datafile size

Hi,
my TEMP datafile increase to 32G.
Why it do that and how to correct this situation.
Any suggestion, Thanks.

First, if you have your TEMP tablespace set to autoextend without specifying a maximum size, I would address that problem.
Second, how big should your TEMP space be?
Third, if your TEMP space grew to 32 GB, someone was either running a tremendous query or a large number of people were simultaneously running rather large queries. Depending on whether this was appropriate-- maybe someone really needed to generate a report that sorted 32 GB of data-- we can suggest ways to move forward.

TEMP datafile siae

Hi,
my TEMP datafile increases to 32G.
I have shudowned and restarted my DB no think allways 32G.
Why it do that and how correct the situation.
Any suggestion, thanks.

Dont keep temp datafiles to auto extend option.
You dont need to worry about temp tbs not releasing the space until you get an error like 'unable to extend temp tablespace extents'. Typicall temp tbs behaviour is like that,i.e. once allocated extends, won't deallocated, in fact, kept for future usage.

TEMP datafiles MAX Size

We are on 9.2.0.5. I had 2 datafiles for my TEMP tablespace, each at 2,048 mb in size. One file was set for autoextend to 32 gb. In a matter of 2 hours, this datafile grew to 100% max size and the other grew to 99.99%. To keep our application running, I added a new 2,048 mb to the tablespace. The problem was traced to a bad query with a strange sort. (Query has since been deleted). My question: Can I shutdown the database, drop the datafiles, create 2 more 2,048 mb datafiles and restart the database? I really want to reclaim the file space. Would this work?

The DB shutdown and restarting fine. However I attempted to resize the datafiles using the following script:
ALTER DATABASE TEMPFILE 'F:\....\TEMP01.DBF'
RESIZE 2048M;
OEM is indicating the file is full and therefore I get the message it I can't resize due to extend past the size of it is currently at.
What needs to be done to resize or to clear the data consuming the datafiles?
