ABSTRACT:
A apparatus, apparatus, and article of manufacture for a computer implemented inplace reorganization system. Data in a database is stored on a data storage device connected to a computer is reorganized. Large object data that needs to be reorganized within a table space is identified. One or more chunks in the table space are allocated to the identified large object data. In particular, a combination of full and partial chunks of space within the table space are allocated to contain the reorganized large object data. Then, the large object data is moved into the allocated chunks to reorganize the large object data inplace. Furthermore, the free space at the end of the table space may be reclaimed.
