Have a session that is doing many, many, samll DML, then commit...No problem.
Session is grabbing diff undo segment every time...No problem.
UNDO_RETENTION is 5 hours....No problem.

At some point today the UNDO tablespace became 100% full and now is 99% full ( 
I think because of this session).
No sessions are waiting or hung because if this...No problem.

Will my UNDO tablespace remain 99% full...forever?...for the next 5 
hours?...until next shutdown?

Thanks,
