Hello all,

When a tablespace is dropped, the datafile is left on the disk. What exactly is the drop tablespace command doing, and is there a way to get that datafile and "re-attach" to a new tablespace in some way? For example, creating a tablespace using that datafile, but without wiping it, as the "reuse" clause does?

Thanks,

g
