Add Partition

I'm using Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production and TNS for Linux: Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production.
Requirement is to create a script to add a LIST partition to some selected tables in a schema (tables do not have data, they are not partitioned). There are about 300 such tables (can vary) and their names are maintained in a separate table.
Example -
Existing table  -
CREATE TABLE test_part
(id number (2),
name varchar2(20),
audit_userid number (9));
Expected table -
CREATE TABLE test_part
(id number (2),
name varchar2(20),
audit_userid number (9))
   PARTITION BY LIST (audit_userid)
      (PARTITION p1_audit_userid VALUES (1));
Ultimate goal is to add more partitions based on the amount of data to be populated.
Appreciate your help!

What is the purpose of these partitions?:
   PARTITION BY LIST (audit_userid)
      (PARTITION p1_audit_userid VALUES (1));
The partitions have to include ALL expected values (or a DEFAULT partition), otherwise if you try to insert an "audit_userid" not in the list it will give error:
ORA-14400: inserted partition key does not map to any partition
Perhaps you could provide some "real world" requirements of what you want to accomplish with this partitioning.

  • Diagnostic pack, Tuning pack are not in OEM 10g, Add partition to a table

    Hi All,
    I have 2 questions:
    Q.1: In Oracle 9i Oracle Enterprise Manager java console, we had "Diagnostic Pack" and "Tuning Pack" which helped us seeing performance tuning info (session's statistics such as cpu time, pga memory, physical disk reads, etc.) and privded help for sql tuning and performance improvements. But in 10g, the same product (Oracle Enterprise Manager java console) does not include these 2 packs, due to which we are unable to monitor and control performance tuning information/statistics. Now my question is, do we need to install these 2 packs separately in 10g? if yes, where can we get them? (I am sure in 9i, these packages came with OEM console and we didnt need to get them separately)
    Q.2: I have a partitioned table having 5 partitions based on range partitioning. Now our requirements have changed and we need to insert values beyong the 5th partition, so we need a 6th partition. Can someone tell me the command to add a new partition to the table? I tried "Alter table xxx add partition yyy ....", but it didn't work. If any one can me the correct syntax, it will be great.
    Thanks in advance.

    OP is talking about java-based EM, not web-based DBConsole. In fact he/she has to change to DBConsole, because 10g java EM doesn't longer support these tuning features.
    Alter table ... partition syntax depends on the kind of partitioning, see the documentation:

  • How to add partition to an existing table

    I have a table that contains lot of data.I need to add partitions to it to improve the performance of the procedures
    using this table.This table is having no existing partition.

    create partitioned table and move your data into. You can't create partitions based on common heap-table.

    Hi Team,

    The documentation you quote says
    Local and global indexes associated with the range-partitioned table remain usable.When you added a partition, the indexes remained usable, just as it said they would:
    when checked for the status of the indexes, I can still see them as USABLE.so I'm not sure what the issue is.
    btw I'm not sure what you mean by
    creating a table and adding local and global partition using the ALTER CommandDid you mean the ALTER TABLE command? What are "local and global partitions" and how did you add them?

  • Add Partition during runtime

    How do you add a partition to a table during runtime
    The table should grow with every month and as part of an automated process (add partition for new months data )
    one should not need to change the table design on a monthly basis ( upgrade on deploy )
    Would this be done with a pre mapping process with dynamic pl/sql ?

    Hi,
    Otherway of doing is, design staging table kind of thing similiar to your target table, load incremental data ( ie monthly data ) into that...then exchange that data with the target table partition in post mapping process...this way, your design repo metadata is unchanged.......
    you may have to think about the index rebuilding .....etc.... and this is theoretical idea suggested in Oracle docs....may be u shd try and let us know.....

  • HT4522 Sounds fine but how do I add partitions in air port utility

    Sounds fine but how do I add partitions in air port utility

    It is possible to partition the drive, but you have to physically pull the hard drive from the Time Capsule and place it in a separate enclosure for the formatting operation, then reinstall the drive again back in the Time Capsule.
    Unfortunately, in addition to a lot of work, this will void the warranty on the Time Capsule.
    It is possible to create one or more disk images on the Time Capsule using Disk Utility.
    While a disk image is not technically a "partition" in the normal sense, it will allow you to specify and reserve a given amount of space on the drive for the image or images that you create.

    Hi Folks.
    I know that drop a partition make invalid public synonyms, packages, functions.
    But.
    Add partition, can make invalid some object?
    I tested and didnt find objects invalid.
    Tks

    Please confirm that your tests included these steps
    1. created a partitioned table
    2. create at least one of every possible type of object that might depend on that table
    3. performed an ADD PARTITION that succeeded
    4. confirmed that NONE of the objects from step #2 were invalidated
    5. performed an ADD PARTITION that failed in various ways (local index partition can't be created, tablespace can't be extended, non-existent tablespace, etc)
    6. confirmed that NONE of the objects from step #2 were invalidated.

  • ADD PARTITION시 NEW LOCAL INDEX PARTITION에 관하여

    ADD PARTITION시 NEW LOCAL INDEX PARTITION에 관하여
    ==================================================
    (※ Oracle Partitioning Option은 8~10g Standard Edition에서는 지원하지 않는다.)
    개 요
    =======
    ALTER TABLE ADD PARTITION을 할 경우 table partition의 경우 table partition,
    tablespace, physical storage attribute를 지정할 수 있으나,
    local index partition의 경우 관련 syntax를 지원하지 않는다 (8.1.6 현재)
    오라클은 자동으로 index partition, tablespace, physical storage attribute를 지정한다.
    (ALTER TABLE SPLIT PARTITION도 마찬가지)
    new index partition의 이름은 new table partition과 같은 이름이 할당되고,
    tablespace, physical storage attribute는 local index에 지정된 default값이 사용되고,
    local index에 지정된 default값이 없으면 user의 default tablespace가 사용된다.
    그러므로 PARTITION 추가하여 사용하는 경우 index partition 관리에 주의가 요구된다.
    다음은 ALTER TABLE ADD PARTITION한 이후에 index partition을 관리하는 예제이다.

    1. If i drop one partition of a table why all the local indexes(year_1998 ... year_2000) get dropped but year_idx remains in database? I couldn't find index in dba_part_indexes view but i could find only year_idx line in dba_indexes view.

    After dropping a partition, the row in DBA_PART_INDEXES still exists, so I'm unsure why it does not appear on your system. The index however does not appear in the DBA_INDEXES view before or after the drop partition:
    for example
    SQL> select owner, index_name from dba_part_indexes where
      2  index_name = 'YEAR_IDX';

  • Unable to add partition on raid array, device or resource busy.

    Greetings,
    I want to be able to create a disk image of a software raid of one of my arch box.
    I'm able to create my image with G4U successfully. I'm also able to restore my image without error on my new box.
    When my system boot up, I make sure that my raid array are up by doing cat /proc/mdstat.
    I can see that md1 and md2 are 2 of 2 and active raid 1. But, when I look at md0 this is what I got:
    md0 : active raid1 sdb3[1]
               6289344 blocks [2/1] [_/U]
    I try to add the partition sda3 to md0 array with this command:
    mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --add /dev/sda3
    The output of this command give me this :
    mdadm: Cannot open /dev/sda3: Device or resource busy.
    It seems that this error only occurs on /dev/md0 (/) array. I'm 100% sure that both, my image and my drive (vmware hdd) are good.
    This is my partition table:
    /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 = /boot (md1) 100MB
    /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2 = swap (md2) 2048MB
    /dev/sda3 /dev/sdb3 = / (md0) 8GB
    I have also tried the image creation with Acronis... same error.

    I solved my issue.
    My menu.lst was wrong..
    kernel /kernel26 root=/dev/md0 ro
    I should add this to my menu.lst:
    kernel /kernel26 root=/dev/md0 ro  md=0,/dev/sda3,/dev/sdb3
    Now it work.
    I followed the archlinux raid guide who's telling this:
    Nowadays (2009.02), with the mdadm hook in the initrd it it no longer necessary to add kernel parameters concerning the RAID array(s).
    Which is wrong because my distro is 2009.02, if someone can add a note to the wiki it can be usefull.
    Thanks for your support

  • Live Partition Resize not working... And can't add partition to free space

    Hello everyone. I have a problem that I'm trying to sort out.
    I have a 500GB WD MyBook external FireWire HD. I had it partitioned into two partitions. One was a 112 GB that I used to create backup images of the 120 GB internal drive of my PB G4 (really 111.66 GB). The other I used for other files.
    Now, I decided that I wanted to start using the Backup partition for Time Machine, but in order to maintain a longer history, I wanted to increase the partition size. I figured this would be a snap with the new capabilities of Disk Utility. Unfortunately, it was not. While it is true that my pocket FireWire drive behaves exactly how I'd expect it to in DU, the 500 GB WD drive does not. I can't do anything to the partitions, in a live manner (the options, + and - buttons are all grayed out, and there is no indication of volume fill status).
    In a fit of frustration, I tried deleting the backup partition. That worked, but now I just have 112 GB of free space, and I still can't do anything with it. I can't even add a 112 GB partition back into this free space.
    Does anyone have any ideas about what is going on here, and what I can do to get things working properly?

  • ADD partition script

    Hi,
    Can anyone shed some light on adding range partitions on a table by date, i need a script which will add 40 partitions from sysdate to sysdate+40. My table struture is
    desc sales_data
    ticket_no number
    pos_no number
    tr_date date
    i want a partition which will stores data on daily basis, so partition on daily basis so 40 partitions. Is there any scripts to do that or ny reference doc will do.
    thanks
    jafar

    hi,
    Thanks for ur reply, but what i need is a script which will add multiple partitions providing some logic on partition name and date values
    for example
    partition nam eshould be like - sales_ddmmyy and value less than ('sysdate+1','DD-MON-YYYY')
    ddmmyy should be value less than sysdate+1 thats it
    i cant figure out the logic or PL/SQL script which would do the automation of adding scripts.

  • How Do I Add Partitions After Bootcamp Installation?

    I want to have Windows 7 on my late 2013 Macbook Pro 13 to run applications not available on OSX.  I need a small separate partition to store files for one of the applications that runs under Windows.  On my older PC Windows machine I have C:\ that contains 98% of the data and a separate partition that acts as a separate drive (M:\) to store library files.  This is a local copy of a server that I carry on my MBP, and doing this as I've done keeps the configuration files (that point to the server M:\) on my MBP consistent with desktop machines that actually point to a network shared drive (M:\).  I just sync my small partition with the server every so often to keep my MBP functioning when I'm disconnected from the server.  Now the problem.  I can install Windows via bootcamp and that creates a C:\ (Windows partition) and gets Windows up and running.  I have already learned the hard way about adjusting the partitions after bootcamp installation (I've rebuilt my Mac about 3 times ).  I have been able to create the correct number of partitions by running the bootcamp assistant, creating the bootcamp partition, rebooting and <option> booting back to OSX, before installing Windows to add this 10GB partition (as FAT32) for my "M drive".  Now after creating the "M drive" partition, I booted back into the Windows install disk (which has issues with USB drivers not functioning which I got past) and now I find out Windows will not install because it can't format the bootcamp partition since it will be a 5th primary partition and Windows 7 only supports 4 primary partitions on a drive.  Is there a better way (without virtual OSs)?

    Not possible. Boot Camp only works for two partitions - the OS X one and the Windows one. That's it. If you attempt to put a third partition on the drive, then Boot Camp is no longer able to manage the drive and you will lose the required boot loader for Windows. Getting things back to normal will then require repartitioning the drive back to one volume and reinstalling OS X from scratch.

  • How to add partition to T400 (Vista 64-bit)?

    i just got my T400 yesterday and uninstalled all the crap, updated, and installed all my apps.  the process took several hours.  Then, I used Acronis Disk Director 10 (boot cd) to split the C: partition in two, so that I could move my documents onto a seperate partition.  The split went fine, but when I rebooted, some lenovo rescue and recovery thing came up and supposedly repaired my partition table (haha).  well, after that I wasn't able to login to windows, even when I deleted the new partition i had made.  I had to do a factory reinstall, and am now in the process of updating everything again
    does anyone know how I can make a partition without the lenovo rescue and recovery thing freaking out?

  • Can I add partitions on a RAID 0 setup?

    Hi everyone,
    I just recently bought a used macbook pro, (15-Inch, Early 2008) that the previous owner put a RAID 0 setup on. I want to try out the OSX Yosemite Beta, but i want to try it on a separate partition so I can keep my Mavericks environment intact. I don't know i it is possible, but I would like some help on how to make a partition with the RAID setup on it. (I do have an external hard drive too, is there a way to run Yosemite off of the external instead of messing with the internal on my MBP?) Thanks in advance for your help!!!

    This doesn't sound like an XServe RAID question - the XServe RAID is a (now-discontinued) 14-drive RAID enclosure designed for server applications.
    I apologize for not knowing where. I know how forum members get upset when people use the wrong forum. It was unintentional.
    For a start there's a question of the enclosure... Is the enclosure a 'dumb' enclosure that just connects the drives to your host system, or does it have a built-in RAID controller.
    It is not a dumb enclosure - it does have jumpers for setting it up under different strategies.
    That is going to be critical in answering your question. If the enclosure has a built-in RAID controller then you will want to use that to manage the RAID 1 mirror setup and you'll likely need to use software provided by the enclosure vendor to set that up.
    Where I am at is that DU does NOT allow this system to be used and recognized by TC. I had to set the enclosure under RAID 1 and that is the only way the TC would allow it to be recognized by my network
    Once that's done your host system will be presented with a 1TB volume (the RAID/mirror is hidden from the OS) and you can partition that like any other drive.
    If the enclosure is dumb it's a little more complex since you'll need to configure the mirror via Disk Utility and then partition the resulting volume (note also that throughput will be lower in this mode since the OS has to write twice as much data over the link to the enclosure - with a hardware RAID in the enclosure the OS only has to write one copy of the data and the enclosure takes care of writing it to both disks).
    So, what's the enclosure you're using?
    I am using the Hornettek unit.
    Thanks for your help. It took me a long time to get to where I am with this unit. TC evidently will not allow it to be recognized if I used DU to configure it.

  • How to add partition to Macintosh HD

    Got my new macbook air yesterday. Had enabled the file vault. It got stuck and displayed a message to connect to power supply. Even after connecting to power supply, it made no difference. Hence backed up from time machine and tried to restore. The restore warned me that file vault encryption will be removed, I said yes.
    But after that, I am stuck with the four options (Time machine restore, Reinstall OS X, Get help online and Disk utility)
    My Macintosh HD is not recognised as a destination drive as Disk utility shows it as a logical volume group , there are no volumes under it.
