You have described how to create partitions when creating the table. Is it also possible to add it later? I tried to add a partition, but unfortunately I couldn't do that: Both failed:
The syntax for adding partitioning to a not partitioned table would be
alter table t1 partition by SYSTEM_TIME (partition p_hist history, partition p_cur current);
"add" only can be used for already partitioned tables.
Thank you. For one Table it worked. But for another table, this error occurred:
Cannot delete or update a parent row: a foreign key constraint fails
What have I done wrong?
OK, I found in the documentation of partitioning limitations: A partitioned table cannot contain, or be referenced by, foreign keys
This is a pity.
