I have tablespace test1#data with two datafiles.
e.g.
e:\oradata\test11#data.ora having space 6000M and
g:\oradata\test12#data.ora having space 5000M

From enterprise manage i see that e:\oradata\test11#data.ora occupy space 5000M and g:\oradata\test12#data.ora occupy 4000M.
Now i want to resize datafile e:\oradata\test11#data.ora to 4500M and try to execute the following command
alter database datafile 'g:\oradata\test12#data.ora' resize 4500M


But i get the follwing error.
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-03297: file contains used data beyond requested RESIZE value


How i can resize the datafile?

I am using the following oracle version

ORA-03297: file contains used data beyond requested RESIZE value
Cause: Some portion of the file in the region to be trimmed is currently in use by a database object
Action: Drop or move segments containing extents in this region prior to resizing the file, or choose a resize value such that only free space is in the trimmed.

You wanted to shrink/extend datafile located on e drive and you perform operation on datafile located on g drive.

You are in conflict with your own one.

What does it mean? By the way, to resize a data file " choose a resize value such that only free space is in the trimmed."

I had a schama with tablespace test#data. Then i want to import another schema from other database to that schema. So i drop all the objects means table,view, index but i didnot drop that tablespace. Then i import that dump to the schema. But total data file were used less than before schema. Now i want to resize the data file but the error happen

Data file is physical storage. Tablespace is logical storage.

Why don't you try

Either
1) change tablespace autoextend on and import then later autoextend off.
or,

2)Add another datafile in the tablespace.
