short question, log demo:

Since I can't make a snapshot of a remote partition (this is really
what I wanted in the first place), I make a snapshot on the remote
machine first and then snapshot the remote snapshot.  This works if
there is a PK on the remote original table, but not if I try to use
rowid.  Below is the demo, can anyone suggest a workaround?


demo that it works with pk:
===========================
on remote machine:
------------------
SQL> CREATE TABLE EMP2
   (EMPNO NUMBER(4) NOT NULL,
    ENAME VARCHAR2(10)
   )
   PARTITION by range (empno)
     (partition e6 values less than (6),
      partition e12 values less than (12),
      partition e18 values less than (maxvalue))
/

Table created.

SQL> alter table emp2  add constraint emp_pk primary key(empno);

Table altered.

(insert some data)

create snapshot emp2_snap as select * from emp2 partition (e6);

SQL> create snapshot emp2_snap as select * from emp2 partition (e6);

Materialized view created.

SQL> select * from emp2_snap;

     EMPNO ENAME
---------- ----------
         1 stellr


on local machine:
-----------------

SQL> create snapshot emp2_local_snap as select * from [EMAIL PROTECTED];

Materialized view created.

SQL> select * from emp2_local_snap;

     EMPNO ENAME
---------- ----------
         1 stellr




demo of failure without pk:
===========================
on remote machine:
------------------
CREATE TABLE EMP3
   (EMPNO NUMBER(4) NOT NULL,
    ENAME VARCHAR2(10)
   )
   PARTITION by range (empno)
     (partition e6 values less than (6),
      partition e12 values less than (12),
      partition e18 values less than (maxvalue))
/

(insert some data)

SQL> create snapshot log on emp3 with rowid;   (can't create the snap without this log)

Materialized view log created.

create snapshot emp3_e6_snap refresh fast WITH ROWID as select * from emp3 partition 
(e6);

SQL> create snapshot emp3_e6_snap refresh fast WITH ROWID as select * from emp3 
partition (e6);

Materialized view created.

SQL> select * from emp3_e6_snap;

     EMPNO ENAME
---------- ----------
         1 stellr


on local machine:
-----------------
SQL> select * from [EMAIL PROTECTED];

     EMPNO ENAME
---------- ----------
         1 stellr

SQL> create snapshot emp3_e6_local_snap refresh fast WITH ROWID as
        select * from [EMAIL PROTECTED]; 
               *
ERROR at line 2:
