TEMP tablespace size issue

966638Jul 1 2013 — edited Jul 1 2013

Hi All,

       Yesterday night, temp tablespace size grow abnormally and its size is now 5.5 GB and it is taking my system space.

       What steps I have to follow to release the space.

        When I do the below queries.

a) SQL> select TABLESPACE_NAME,BYTES_USED,BYTES_FREE from v$temp_space_header;

    TABLESPACE_NAME                BYTES_USED BYTES_FREE
     ------------------------------ ---------- ----------
      TEMP                           6102712320          0

b) SQL> SELECT * FROM v$sort_usage;

    no rows selected

c) SQL> SELECT * FROM V$SQLAREA WHERE ADDRESS='sqladress' ;

    no rows selected

d) SQL> SELECT tablespace_name,
    2  total_extents, used_extents, free_extents
    3  FROM v$sort_segment;

    TABLESPACE_NAME                 TOTAL_EXTENTS USED_EXTENTS FREE_EXTENTS
    ------------------------------- ------------- ------------ ------------
    TEMP                                     5819            0         5819

Please suggest what step I have to follow and what will be impact with this condition.

Thanks,

SAL
