Dear All,

        Platform: Solaris 2.6, Oracle: 7.3.4.0

We have a few tables which are growing very fast due to large no of
insertions. But the data gets obselete after a month and we use a
procedure to delete the obselete data from the tables. 

        The problem is that the table does not free the space even after the deletion 
of 40% of the data. 

How can we re-claim the unused space which got created due to deletion?

How do we ensure that future inserts are done in this unused space?


                [We can not try exp/imp or truncate option 
                due to the huge size  & high activity and 
                online use of the tables].

Kind Regards and thanks to all there,


Rafi Ahmad
