Following query shows free space at datafile end (=possible for shrink)

column freem heading Free(MB) format 999G999D99


select /*+ RULE */ f.tablespace_name,f.file_id, sum(f.bytes)/1024/1024 freem 
from dba_free_space f,
(select file_id,max(block_id) max_block from dba_extents
group by file_id) e where
f.file_id=e.file_id(+) and f.block_id>nvl(e.max_block,0)
group by f.tablespace_name,f.file_id
order by f.tablespace_name,f.file_id; 

Best Regards,
Petr

It might be a clunky way of resizing the UNDO space, but I generally create a 
new undo tablespace, set that one to be the default, drop the current and be 
done with it.  

You can also use this query to see if anything has a hold on undo space.

SELECT substr(s.sid||','||s.serial#,1,15) SID_SERIAL,
       substr(NVL(s.username, 'None'),1,20) orauser,
       substr(s.program,1,20) program,
       substr(r.name,1,20) undoseg,
       substr(t.used_ublk * TO_NUMBER(x.value)/1024||'K',1,20) "Undo"
FROM sys.v_$rollname    r,
        sys.v_$session     s,
        sys.v_$transaction t,
        sys.v_$parameter   x
WHERE s.taddr = t.addr
    AND r.usn   = t.xidusn(+)
    AND x.name  = 'db_block_size'
/

Subject: how to shrink undo tablespace on 10GR2?

We have 10GR2 on Linux server.  I found one database "undo" tablespace has been 
extend to 32 GB size.  I used 'dba_free_space" to check and found this data 
file actually is empty.  I tried to "resize" it back to small size but I can 
only resize it to 28GB.  I knew this may be cause by "high water mark".  

Does there has way to shrink it to small?

Thanks.
