I think you mean a "de-fragmentation" more than a "reorg".

I wouldn't worry about it too much. :)

Um, think about what you said.
If you deleted a bunch of DB2 files you would then run a RGZPFM. I've
found it quite hard to RGZPFM a file that no longer exists. How do you
get that done? :-)
IOW, deleting a table is a lot different than deleting rows in a table.

I suppose if you were running a S/36 you could try a COMPACT command.

But, seriously though, if it was REALLY significant you may want to
consider researching TRCASPBAL and STRASPBAL.

We are in the process of deleting a lot of old unused files from the IFS.
If I were to do that for a database file I would run a RGZPFM at some
point after to free up the deleted record space. Is there a command that
should be run against the IFS if you do a lot of file deletions or does it
manage itself really well?
