Title: RE: local partition index question

This subject nicely raises an question(s) I have.

We have some tables complete with PK and FK's referencing them. We have now added a create_timestamp column to the tables and wish to partition the tables using the range (create_timestamp). No problems.

However we canot create a PK index because, as you state Cherie, the PK does not contain the column that we have partitioned on.

What workarounds are there. I can create a unique index on the PK columns (name,id for example)but it also affects the FK that other tables use to reference this table.

How do other people sites work around this

John

Yes, that is true. I've seen that to be the case in our warehouse
database.

Hi all,

I am new to partition and I was told the following statement and
I couldn't verify it in the doc. Could someone please tell me if
it's true or not?

"The partition column must be included in the primary key for the resulting

unique index to be locally partitioned."

Thanks
