RE: Temp tbs with no temp file

One potential problem which hit me once when I had to do a database switch after a long night is forgetting to add the tempfile. All the applications checked out okay since they don't do large sorts but a bunch of batch jobs failed overnight...

Never made *that* mistake again.

Of course you have the same problem when you activate the standby database! Blocks in temporary tablespaces are not protected by redo logs. That means that changes of blocks in the temporary tablespace are not written into redo log
files. Consequently, you cannot find them in the archived redo log files, which
means that standby database doesn't need them. You can simply add a new one and
everything will be OK. I don't see what is the problem? Tempfiles are a convenient,
can be easily handled and you shouldn't care if you lose them. What exactly is
the problem when activating standby?
