Kevin, how about using the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE command to move the info from a non-partitioned to a partitioned table. ROR m���m
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/28/02 11:28AM >>> Hello! I am trying to figure out the best way to convert a non-partitioned table with approx 20 million rows into a hash-partitioned table. This should be done with minimal down-time. This will be in an Oracle 9i environment done at a time when only SELECTs are occuring on the table. The best way I can figure is to create a second table and copy the data over; create the indexes; and rename the tables. I would appreciate any hints on what section of TFM to read.
