临时表空间用来管理数据库排序操作以及用于存储临时表、中间排序结果等临时对象,当ORACLE里需要用到SORT的时候，并且当PGA中sort_area_size大小不够时，将会把数据放入临时表空间里进行排序。临时表空间存储大规模排序操作(小规模排序操作会直接在RAM里完成，大规模排序才需要磁盘排序Disk Sort)和散列操作的中间结果.它跟永久表空间不同的地方在于它由临时数据文件(temporary files)组成的,而不是永久数据文件(datafiles)。临时表空间不会存储永久类型的对象，所以它不会也不需要备份。另外，对临时数据文件的操作不产生redo日志，不过会生成undo日志。

创建临时表空间或临时表空间添加临时数据文件时，即使临时数据文件很大，添加过程也相当快。这是因为ORACLE的临时数据文件是一类特殊的数据文件:稀疏文件(Sparse File),当临时表空间文件创建时，它只会写入文件头部和最后块信息(only writes to the header and last block of the file)。它的空间是延后分配的.这就是你创建临时表空间或给临时表空间添加数据文件飞快的原因。

另外，临时表空间是NOLOGGING模式以及它不保存永久类型对象，因此即使数据库损毁，做Recovery也不需要恢复Temporary Tablespace。

STEP1: Find the existing temp tablespace details

SQL> select tablespace_name,file_name from dba_temp_files

TABLESPACE_NAME FILE_NAME
------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------
TEMP /home/oracle/app/oracle/oradata/cdb1/orcl/orcl_temp01201
4-07-30_04-39-23-PM.dbf

STEP2: Create another Temporary Tablespace TEMP1

CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP1 TEMPFILE ‘/u01/app/oradata/DBACLASS/temp01′ SIZE 2G;

STEP3: Move Default Database temp tablespace

ALTER DATABASE DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP1;

STEP4: If any sessions are using temp space, then kill them.

SELECT b.tablespace,b.segfile#,b.segblk#,b.blocks,a.sid,a.serial#,
a.username,a.osuser, a.status
FROM v$session a,v$sort_usage b
WHERE a.saddr = b.session_addr;

ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION 'SID,SERIAL#' IMMEDIATE;

STEP5: Drop the original temp tablespace.

Drop temp tablespace

DROP TABLESPACE temp INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES;

If you want to change the name from TEMP1 to TEMP, then follow the same process as below.

STEP6: Create TEMP tablespace

CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP TEMPFILE /u01/app/temp/temp01′ SIZE 2000M;

STEP7: Make TEMP as default tablespace

ALTER DATABASE DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE temp;

STEP8: Drop temporary for tablespace temp1

DROP TABLESPACE temp1 INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES;
