To create a new user and assign a default table space, you can follow these steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Log in to the Oracle database with administrator privileges.<\/li>\n
  2. Create a new tablespace, for example:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    CREATE<\/span> TABLE<\/span>SPACE example_ts\r\nDATAFILE '\/path\/to\/example_ts.dbf'<\/span> SIZE 100<\/span>M\r\nAUTOEXTEND ON<\/span> NEXT 10<\/span>M;\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
      \n
    1. Create a new user and set their default tablespace to the one we created above, for example:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      CREATE<\/span> USER<\/span> new_user IDENTIFIED BY<\/span> password\r\nDEFAULT<\/span> TABLESPACE example_ts\r\nTEMPORARY TABLESPACE temp_ts;\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
        \n
      1. Grant appropriate permissions to new users, for example:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        GRANT<\/span> CONNECT<\/span>, RESOURCE TO<\/span> new_user;\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
          \n
        1. Finally, save the changes and exit the session.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
          COMMIT<\/span>;\r\nEXIT;\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
          Now, the new user has been created and assigned their default tablespace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
