RE: How to re-org an empty file

Yeah - inflation is just terrible
I added a record (is added even a word), and I am now RGZPFM.
It's still running so I have my fingers crossed.
Once this re-org is finished, I will see what the Allocate Storage value is AND look at the CHGPF for the size and extents

Wow, running CLRPFM actually increased it from 32gb to 33gb!

Seriously, run CHGPF against the file. See page 2 for the size and extents.
At least, that's how I handle those babies.

Do a CLRPFM, much better if you are 100% sure it has no records. Faster and better.

Afternoon all
We have a file on our test system that is taking up 32 gig of space, BUT contains no records (zero, zilch, nada) Re-org I say.
Re-org I attempt, and failure with the following message
CPF2995
No members in file xxxxxxxxxx or no data in member xxxxxxxxxx.

Anyone have any ideas?
