Example: HASH/RANGE PARTITIONS num... You can extend the PARTITION BY HASH clause to include SUBPARTITION BY either RANGE | LIST | HASH to create subpartitions in a HASH partitioned table. This example creates a table sales that's hash partitioned by part_no and subpartitioned using a range by dept_no .
To drop table partitions, use DROP PARTITION or DROP SUBPARTITION with the ALTER TABLE SQL statement. The following statements drop a table partition or subpartition: ALTER TABLE DROP PARTITION to drop a table partition.
Oracle Partitioning offers several partitioning strategies that control how the database places data into partitions. The basic strategies are range, list, and hash partitioning.
To create a composite partitioned table, you start by using the PARTITION BY RANGE | LIST clause of a CREATE TABLE statement. Next, you specify a SUBPARTITION BY RANGE | LIST | HASH clause that follows similar syntax and rules as the PARTITION BY RANGE | LIST | HASH clause.
The Oracle Exchange Partition is a method allowing to : exchange the data segments from a non partitioned table to a partitioned table. exchange the data segments from a partitioned table to a non partitioned table.
Specify new values for the default attributes of a partitioned index. The only attribute you can specify for a hash-partitioned global index or for an index on a hash-partitioned table is TABLESPACE . Specify the default tablespace for new partitions of an index or subpartitions of an index partition.
Dropping Index Partitions You cannot explicitly drop a partition from a local index. Instead, local index partitions are dropped only when you drop a partition from the underlying table. If a global index partition is empty, you can explicitly drop it by issuing the ALTER INDEX DROP PARTITION statement.
Dropping Table Partitions. You can use the ALTER TABLE DROP PARTITION statement to drop table partitions. If there are local indexes defined for the table, ALTER TABLE DROP PARTITION also drops the matching partition from each local index.
ORA-14097: column type or size mismatch in ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION Cause: The corresponding columns in the tables specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION are of different type or size Action: Ensure that the two tables have the same number of columns with the same type and size.
Use the ALTER INDEX statement to change or rebuild an existing index. The index must be in your own schema or you must have the ALTER ANY INDEX system privilege. To execute the MONITORING USAGE clause, the index must be in your own schema.
