Thanks. I used Ashutosh Bapa's blop post as a guideline.

For others attempting this, I first created my parent and child structure.
Then inserted the data from the original table into the child tables. Once
I was happy with my new structure I drop the original table. (which is
still backed just in case)

I found a couple of areas I'd missed on reading about partitions. First, no
primary key. That was a big surprise. Second, my triggers I use to catch
information going into the table, needed to be pointed at the child tables.
I also leaned that my range partition value I used on a timestamp needed to
have fractional seconds. I used a range of 2017-01-01 00:00:00 to
2017-23:59:59 which failed when I attempted to add a record that had a
timestamp of 2017-23:59:59. Adding a fractional second to the range solved
the problem.
