Change the auto increment column in Mysql

We can change the value of auto increment column which set by getting the maximum value from the table. Suppose we did lot of delete operation and we want to set the auto increment again but we need to fine first max value present in table then we change it.

Find the max value for the column

select max(column_name) from table_name;

Set the Auto increment value for the table, suppose max return 100 then plus 1 for new value.

ALTER TABLE table_name AUTO_INCREMENT = 101;
