The 'applicationdb' is using InnoDB and consuming a large amount of file system space. You have a /backup partition available on NFS where backups are stored.
You investigate and gather this information:
The table data_current has 1,000,000 rows.
The table data_reports has 1,500,000 rows.
The table data_archive has 4,500,000 rows.
Three tables are stored in the InnoDB shared tablespace and the details are as follows:
You attempt to free space from ibdata1 by taking a mysqldump of the data_archive table and storing it on your backup partition.
Unfortunately, this action does not free any actual disk space back to the file system and the server disk space is running out.
Which set of actions will allow you to free disk space back to the file system?
