Browse All Topics Hi!
I have a problem that I can't seem to find any answer to through "google-ing".
I have a table with a timestamp column as primary key.
Now what I want to do is create a table-partitioned table which is partitioned by that particular column
where I have in each partition 2 months of data.
Example the part 1 would have partition ending at the timestamp '30.09.2009 23:59:59 999999'.
In the DDL of the table it complains about the conversion or illegal keyword TIMESTAMP
in the part where I partition the table
...
PARTITION BY (PK_TIMESTAMP ASC)
(PART 1 VALUES(TIMESTAMP( '30.09.2009','23:59:59 999999')),
PART 2 VALUES(TIMESTAMP( '30.11.2009','23:59:59 999999')))
...
How can I partition on a particular timestamp ? The problem is the 999999 part. I have data which has for example the timestamp 30.09.2009 23:59:59.410023
and if I only have the part1 on timestamp( '30.09.2009','23:59:59') then the partitioning timestamp will be '30.09.2009','23:59:59.000
the record falls into Part 2. :(
Please help.
Regards,
Tomas Helgi
