Hi,
Well, it's been over 7 minutes since I un-offlined the tablespace, and there are no more of those msgs in Event Viewer.
I've been Googling to see if I could find any other instances of this situation, but the closest I came was:
but there were no responses there :(.
Does anyone have any idea why this happens when I offline that EXAMPLE tablespace?
Does this mean that I CANNOT safely drop the the tablespace?
Thanks,
Jim
