SQL command FSCK is not found

Hello there,

I currently have the problem of deleted files still being in the transaction log when trying to call a delta table. What I found was this statement:

%sql
FSCK REPAIR TABLE table_name [DRY RUN]

But using it returned following error:

Error in SQL statement: ParseException: 
mismatched input 'FSCK' expecting {'(', 'CONVERT', 'COPY', 'OPTIMIZE', 'RESTORE', 'ADD', 'ALTER', 'ANALYZE', 'CACHE', 'CLEAR', 'COMMENT', 'COMMIT', 'CREATE', 'DELETE', 'DESC', 'DESCRIBE', 'DFS', 'DROP', 'EXPLAIN', 'EXPORT', 'FROM', 'GRANT', 'IMPORT', 'INSERT', 'LIST', 'LOAD', 'LOCK', 'MAP', 'MERGE', 'MSCK', 'REDUCE', 'REFRESH', 'REPLACE', 'RESET', 'REVOKE', 'ROLLBACK', 'SELECT', 'SET', 'SHOW', 'START', 'TABLE', 'TRUNCATE', 'UNCACHE', 'UNLOCK', 'UPDATE', 'USE', 'VALUES', 'WITH'}

Does anybody have an idea how I can fix this or what might cause this issue?

I'm running on Azure and use Databricks Runtime Version 9.1 (Apache Spark 3.1.2 and Scala 2.12)

Remove square brackets and try executing the command

%sql

FSCK REPAIR TABLE table_name DRY RUN
