MySQL OPTIMIZE all tables?

Question

MySQL has an OPTIMIZE TABLE command which can be used to reclaim unused space in a MySQL install. Is there a way (built-in command or common stored procedure) to run this optimization for every table in the database and/or server install, or is this something you'd have to script up yourself?

Answer 1

Try using mysqlcheck, at the command line to run the optimization table for every table in database and to install the server .

At one database:

mysqlcheck -o <db_schema_name>

At all databases:

mysqlcheck -o --all-databases
