I have an ibdata1 file that contains old database records from a truncated table. &nbsp;I need to clean up the file so those records are no longer stored on the system.<br />
<br />
Is there any way for me to do this without taking down the database?<br />

The server OS is Centos 6.4, the application is MariaDB 5.5.<br />

Thank you for your time.<br />
