Re: DBA_TEMP_FILES.MAXBYTES is wrong

Check out MetaLink note #6224.1 (entitled "Alert: Sparse files and Oracle").
It should explain the basic situation.
For what it might be worth, I've attached a script that I use for detecting
file-systems that are "oversubscribed" due to the use of "sparsely-populated
files" with Oracle tempfiles.  No warranty -- your mileage may vary...
