Hi, This is the free space left in the InnoDB file. InnoDB will claim all the space that it is configured for and if autoextend is turned on it will use additional space when needed until the file limit is reached.
For example my current configuration is innodb_data_file_path =/var/lib/mysql/innodbfile:100M:autoextend:max:60G When Innodb first started it created a 100 MB file and with the time this file has growed to 20GB.
