Is there any disadvantage to using a tempfile tablespace for the TEMP tablespaces used by the application? Apart from the fact that they are non-recoverable. In the past I have created TEMP tablespaces with datafiles. I suppose the nature of the temp tablespace is that it contains temporary data and does not need to be recoverable.
Thanks for the info.

Hi Glen,A tablespace created with the CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE command uses tempfiles
instead of datafiles, and as such is often called a "tempfile tablespace". A
tempfile tablespace is equivalent to a locally managed datafile tablespace with
temporary contents, except that tempfiles do not participate in recovery in
anyway and thus do not need to be backed up.@ Regards,

Subject: Temporary TablespacesI am interested to know what the difference between a tablespace that is
"created as temporary" and a "temporary tablespace" is?
