Hi Dear List,
Does anyone can tell me how oracle manage the blob space?
I have a table with a blob column in it. The contents of the blob columns
are stored in a different tablespace. my question is what happens to the
"space occupied" by blob in the tablespace when it is deleted. Looks like we
are very fragment on this tablespace. Right now the tablespace has 75
datafiles (4g each) and filled up very quickly. The problem is we can't
continue to buy the disk. How we can reused the space?
