Changing the tablespace of a partitioned table currently means to set a default tablespace for partitions created after the change. Robert proposed to change it so that it means to move every partition to that tablespace, unless ONLY is specified. Simon objects to that change. -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
