How to reclaim data store space in timesten 7.0.5 database

Hello experts,

Lately i am having challenges with Timesten datastore space issues. I truncated one huge table consisting of 2+ millions rows and even after that i would not get the space back. I tried restarting the TT manager and that didnt work either.

The 'log purge and 'Log auto truncate' options are enabled in my DSN.

Perm size: 900 (currently sitting at 845 mb)
Temp size: 100
log file size 128
log bugger: 131072

If the tablespace has not objects on it drop it using the following syntax

drop tablespace tablespace_name including contents;

This will drop the datafiles at the OS level and free up the space.

If the tablespace is NOT empty, but if it has some freespace move that object to a new tablespace and then drop the tablespace. This will help reclaiming the space.
