Hi Gustavo,  

As you query is showing 0 rows means there is no data in your table.. So to reclaim this use truncate option. Truncate option comes up with two options - Drop Storage and Reuse Storage  

The command would be :-  

Truncate table sunil drop storage

Hi guys,  

I’ve a table that at one point had lots of inserts and now the table has 3.6Gb worth of space allocated. When I do a select count(*) it returns 0 rows.    

How do I release all this space allocated?  

Thanks
