How do you alter the table to use the new partition (I know ALTER TABLE is in there but BOL doesn't give a valid example with the move option)? I can create the partition but I want to apply it to an existing table with no partition?
Thanks
Hi ,
I had a table which is going to burst, and of course performance issue is come in to place. and now we thinking to apply to partition method into this table.
So is that possible to create a partition scheme and against the existing table? and how is the T-SQL statement will be look like.
Thanks for anyone for giving some clue...
I've create a partition function and a partion scheme for my database.
Now I would like to change an existing table to use these partition.
The table is replicated.
How can I do this?
Thanks

Can we create the Partition on Existing Table?e.g Create table t ( col1 number(10,0), Col2 Varchar(10)) ;After the table Creation can we alter the table to partition the table.

I have a non-partitioned table (TableToPartition) and I want to apply an existing partition scheme (PartSch) to it using a query. I didn't find any option so I used the StorageCreate Partition wizard to generate the script.why this clustering magic needed if it is dropped at the end? Isn't there another way without indexing to partition a table, say something with ALTER TABLE? (SQL Server 2012)
BEGIN TRANSACTION
CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX [ClusteredIndex_on_PartSch_635694324610495157] ON [dbo].[TableToPartition]

How to add some more ranges to existing partition schema and function?
Already My table partitioned on date ranges,
6 partitions , each partition contains 6 moths data, so total data is 3 years.
i.e. 1 partition data- from jan2012 to Jun2012
2 partition data- from july2012 to dec2012
3 partition data- from jan2013 to Jun2013
4 partition data- from july2013 to dec2013
5 partition data- from jan2014 to Jun2014
6 partition data- from july2014 to dec2014
After Jan2015 data will go to Primary file group(Default)
Now customer wants to add two more file groups with these partitions ranges, i.e. jan2015 to jun15 and Jul15 to dec15.
File group and ndf file adding is OK, But
how to alter partition scheme and partition function with these additional ranges to existing partition function and scheme?
partitioned table size is 200 GB.

I use sql 2005. What is the best practice for dealing with large table (more than million rows)? Table Partition, View or other?
Can you please give some suggestions? It will be very helpful if you can post some references or examples.
Thank you!
A customer wants to implement table partitioning on a replicated table.
They want to hold 13 months of data in the table and roll off the earliest/oldest month to an identical archive table. The table has a date field and partitioning by month makes sense all around.
So SWITCH PARTITION is the obvious solution to this, except for the fact that the table is replicated (transactional w/no subscriber updates).
What are his architectural or practical solutions to using table partitioning and replication?

Hi
Please help me how to do the Horizontal table partition??
I have to split the table in to multiple sub tables with same columns and less rows and then I have to use each sub table.
Thanks you in advance....

All,
I have a partitioned table (1.7 billion rows) that is across 97 partions. The table is partitioned on datetime field.
When I query only this table with datetime field in where clause I see that cleary it outperforms the unpartitioned table.
When this table is joined to 3 tables it performs no better than
the non-partitioned table... it seems that the query does a partition scan.
The part. table has a 3 part composite clustered index and
a NC index on the partion field value.
Would appreciate any feedback.
thanks

Hi all,
My question is about Indexs on partition where I have a table with say 5 partitions and I want to create index on partitions and not on the whole table. The objective is that if i create a table level index on a partition table and eventually if I drop one of the partition or add another partition, what will happen to the index?
1) Do I need to re-create the index for the partion which are left after deleting one partition?
2) If a partition is added do I need re-create the index for the whole table or just create the index for that particular new partition?

How can I make partitions on a table for a particular value and ranges together?
For example, for customer id 12345 i need a separate partition, then for 56789 i need a separate partition, and if i have range of values like 1000 to 1020 then a separate partition for this.
For certain ids i need unique partition, and for certain ids i need Ranges.
is it possible in SQL 2012?

File Groups= Jan,Feb.....Dec

I am using RIGHT Range in Partition function.
Then I defined partition scheme on partition function.
I have more than 7,00,000 data in my database.
I checked filegroups and count rows. It works fine.
But When I check the estimation plan time out for query it is same for both partition table and non partition table.
