PDB without local TEMP Tablespace

Question

Due to the Oracle Database 12c Concepts Guide it should be possible to create a PDB without a local TEMP Tablespace and the create PDB syntax includes the option (MAX_SHARD_TEMP_SIZE).
But I cannot find any hint how to create a PDB without a TEMP Tablespace or how to change the default temp tablespace to point to the CDB:
Any help will be appreciated.

Answer 1

There is no standard way to create a PDB without a TEMP tablespace
Yes - there is. But you CLEARLY don't want to do things the standard way. You want to use some particular non-standard way.
It is not 'standard' to create a database without a temporary tablespace. That is almost ALWAYS a mistake. That generally happens when you use the CREATE DATABASE command and don't specify it properly.
When you create a database you do NOT have to create a temporary tablespace. That has been the RULE from the very beginning and it is still true for 12c. For proof see the DBA Guide:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E16655_01/server.121/e17636/create.htm#i1009290
Creating a Default Temporary Tablespace
The DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE clause of the CREATE DATABASE statement creates a default temporary tablespace for the database. Oracle Database assigns this tablespace as the temporary tablespace for users who are not explicitly assigned a temporary tablespace.
You can explicitly assign a temporary tablespace or tablespace group to a user in the CREATE USER statement. However, if you do not do so, and if no default temporary tablespace has been specified for the database, then by default these users are assigned the SYSTEM tablespace as their temporary tablespace. It is not good practice to store temporary data in the SYSTEM tablespace, and it is cumbersome to assign every user a temporary tablespace individually. Therefore, Oracle recommends that you use the DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE clause of CREATE DATABASE.
You don't have to believe me or the docs.
Try it yourself. That is the best way to learn. Post your results here for all to see.
That is what that 12c doc says and what ALL of the docs for the versions before say. See for yourself. Here is the doc link for Oracle 7.3 so you can see the CREATE DATABASE systax yourself
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/A57673_01/DOC/server/doc/SQL73/ch4a.htm#createdatabase
Without a temp tablespace Oracle is forced to use the SYSTEM tablespace for the temporary.
These are the STANDARD ways:
1. Create PDB with a temporary tablespace.
2. Use the DBCA with a custom template
3. Create your own PDB seed database without a temp tablespace and then clone your seed to create other PDBs without a temp tablespace
4. Use CREATE DATABASE to create a DB without a temp tablespace and then plug it in to your CDB root container.
Those are ALL standard methods. The last three result in PDBs withoug a temp tablespace.
#1 is what you should be using.
1. Create PDB with a temporary tablespace.
2. Shrink/resize the temp tablespace down to a minimum if you want
3. Assign the users to the CDB temp tablespace if you don't want them using the PDB temp
I would appreciate if you only answer to questions if you have tested it or have a precise answer to it!
I have done BOTH of those things. Your failure to recognize that is NOT my problem.
I have created a PDB without a temp tablespace using DBCA and a custom template.
I have also created a PDB without a temp tablespace by using the historical standard method of CREATE DATABASE  without a temp tablespace and then plugging it into the CDB and a PDB.
It is YOUR responsibility to RTFM and YOUR responsibility to actually put your fingers on the keyboard and try things.
The forum is NOT a coding service so you have no right to expect someone to write code for you and no right to get upset if they don't.
dbca doesn't use any other commands than the one's I've already tried!
Your reality is different than Oracle's. Support your reality with some facts.
I just created a PDB (create pluggable database) and no wonder that one comes with a temp tablespace.
I don't see where you posted ANYTHING that shows:
1. exactly WHAT you did
2. exactly HOW you did it
3. exactly what results you got.
If you want help with the code or a process you are using you have to POST that code or process.
We can NOT see your computer screen to see what screens you see or what entries you make.
Complain about the messenger all you want.
But you will NOT be successful with 12c if you refuse to RTFM and refuse to try things yourself. Making unsubstantiated statements or trying to attack me may make you feel better but you won't learn anything from it.
