You can run the Restructure Cube job to perform a full restructure of a block storage cube to eliminate or reduce fragmentation. This will also remove empty blocks.

Note:
You should not run this job during the application maintenance time. You also should not launch a consolidation process while the Restructure Cube job is running.
When you perform this operation:
