Trying to merge chunks using the following command:

         db.adminCommand

         ( {

           mergeChunks: "HTMLDumps.HTMLRepository",

           bounds: [ {   "ShardMapId" : 2, "DomainId" : 62 },

           {  "ShardMapId" : 2, "DomainId" : 162 } ]

         } )

getting the following error when trying to run the above command to try to merge any of the available consecutive chunks available on a shard:

             {

             "ok" : 0,

              }

             }

This is happening regardless of which chunks i select. Main reason for me to try to do this is to achieve true data balancing and not just chunk numbers. Recently developers deleted 90% of the data from these chunks that caused the distribution to get to 90% 10% state from 60/40 earlier. I hope to merge/remove empty chunks to ensure balancing of the data to reach as close to 60/40 as possible.
