1. A method for shared temporary storage management in a shared disk database cluster (SDC), the method comprising: reserving units on-demand and of variable size from shared temporary storage space in the SDC, wherein the reserving controls a size of the reserved units based upon configuration of the SDC, remaining space of the shared temporary storage space, and a number of configured nodes, and wherein the shared temporary storage space exists independent from the reserving units; tracking utilization of the reserved units of the shared temporary storage space, wherein coordinator and secondary nodes of the SDC maintain bitmaps which track the utilization of the reserved units, and each bit in the bitmaps represents a logical disk block and tracks whether the logical disk block is free or in use, and wherein the secondary nodes periodically send content of the bitmaps associated with the secondary nodes to the coordinator node; and administering the shared temporary storage space based on the tracking.
