Hello all,

DB: 8i
OS: soalris 2.8

why DBMS_SPACE.FREE_BLOCKS is not giving correct
status:

create table ram1 (a number);
 
analyze table ram1 compute statistics;
 
 select table_name, blocks,empty_blocks
 from dba_tables
 where table_name = 'RAM1';  
 
TABLE_NAME        BLOCKS  EMPTY_BLOCKS

 RAM1             0        4
 
Using dbms_space.free_space:

 set serveroutput on
 declare
 free number;
 begin
 dbms_space.free_blocks('SYS','RAM1','TABLE',0,free);
 dbms_output.put_line('Free blocks '||free);
 end;
 /
 
> Free blocks 0
> 
> PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

am I missing something ?

regards,
srinivas
