Can I partition an existing table?
I have a table which has started growing at a very fast pace and would
like to partition it.
Thanks.

Which platform are you talking about and which sort of partitioning?

Partitioning a table based on the partitioning keys.
You need DB2 ESE with Data Partitioning Feature, and you would have to
recreate the table.
DB2 V9 will support Range Partitioning as part of the standard offering (I
presume).
We do have DPF available.
So, will I have to create a new table using
'CREATE TABLE tablename ... PARTITIONING KEY (column)' and then import the
data from the previous table?
Thanks for your help.

First you need to add database partitions, either on the same physical
machine, or on another machine (in which case you need to install DB2 on the
other machine). See the START DATABASE MANAGER and ADD DBPARTITIONNUM
command.
However, I would not try to create partitioned databases under DPF unless
you have had some training or get some consulting help, or unless you find a
very good book on the subject. DPF is not anything like range partitioning
in Oracle or DB2 for z/OS.

San,
How big is your table? How wide are your rows?
With 32K pagesize you can reach 512GB on 255 rows/page on DB2 V8.2
In DB2 Viper that gets you to 16TB without even looking at any sort of
partitioning.
Cheers

I need to create a partition table but the column on which I need to

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to do an exchange partition between a partitioned
table on dbA and a non partitioned table on dbB using db links.
say I have a partitioned table - billing_records which is range partition - 1 partition for each month.
This table resides on database A. the partition names are jan_2007, feb_2007....
I have a db B. which has the smaller tables afor each month - billing_jan_2007, billing_feb_2007.

Is there a way to attach a partition to an existing table that already
has partitions (without loading data)? For example, the syntax of the
attach partition is documented below:
alter table <tablenameattach partition P_data_2009Q1 STARTING FROM
('01/01/2009') INCLUSIVE ENDING AT ('03/31/2009') INCLUSIVE from
<tableload>
The goal is to set-up the partition but not actually load any data
into it.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
