Description:
We have configured innodb data file path as follows
 
innodb_data_home_dir=/nsdata/nms/innodata1
innodb_data_file_path=nmsdata1:4000M;nmsdata2:4000M;nmsdata3:4000M;nmsdata4:4000M;nmsdata5:4000M;nmsdata6:4000M;nmsdata7:4000M;nmsdata8:4000M;nmsdata9:4000M;nmsdata10:4000M;nmsdata11:4000M;nmsdata12:4000M;nmsdata13:4000M;nmsdata14:4000M;nmsdata15:4000M;nmsdata16:4000M;nmsdata17:4000M;nmsdata18:4000M;nmsdata19:4000M;nmsdata20:4000M;nmsdata21:4000M;nmsdata22:4000M;nmsdata23:4000M;nmsdata24:4000M;nmsdata25:4000M;nmsdata26:4000M;nmsdata27:4000M;nmsdata28:4000M;nmsdata29:4000M;nmsdata30:4000M;nmsdata31:4000M;nmsdata32:4000M;nmsdata33:4000M;nmsdata34:4000M;nmsdata35:4000M;nmsdata36:4000M:autoextend

The datafile nmsdata36 increased to 280GB and it will increase hopefully. 

Can you provide an option to reclaim the innodb data storage space without affecting the data. 

How to repeat:
modify the my.cnf file and include the configuration as below 

innodb_data_home_dir=/nsdata/nms/innodata1
innodb_data_file_path=nmsdata1:4000M;nmsdata2:4000M;nmsdata3:4000M;nmsdata4:4000M;nmsdata5:4000M;nmsdata6:4000M;nmsdata7:4000M;nmsdata8:4000M;nmsdata9:4000M;nmsdata10:4000M;nmsdata11:4000M;nmsdata12:4000M;nmsdata13:4000M;nmsdata14:4000M;nmsdata15:4000M;nmsdata16:4000M;nmsdata17:4000M;nmsdata18:4000M;nmsdata19:4000M;nmsdata20:4000M;nmsdata21:4000M;nmsdata22:4000M;nmsdata23:4000M;nmsdata24:4000M;nmsdata25:4000M;nmsdata26:4000M;nmsdata27:4000M;nmsdata28:4000M;nmsdata29:4000M;nmsdata30:4000M;nmsdata31:4000M;nmsdata32:4000M;nmsdata33:4000M;nmsdata34:4000M;nmsdata35:4000M;nmsdata36:4000M:autoextend
