Deleting orphaned data files after a tablespace import

Use the rdsadmin.rdsadmin_transport_util.list_xtts_orphan_files procedure to delete data files that were orphaned after a tablespace import. Running this command generates a log file that uses the name format rds-xtts-delete_xtts_orphaned_files-YYYY-MM-DD.HH24-MI-SS.FF.log in the BDUMP directory. Use the procedure rdsadmin.rdsadmin_transport_util.cleanup_incomplete_xtts_import to find the orphaned files. You can read the log file by calling the procedure rdsadmin.rds_file_util.read_text_file. For more information, see Phase 6: Clean up leftover files.
