What if the syntax was something like -
CREATE TABLE tabname ( ... ... ) PARTITION BY HASH(expr)
| RANGE(expr)
| LIST(expr)
[PARTITIONS num_partitions] /* will apply to HASH only for now*/
[PARTITION partition_name CHECK(...) [USING TABLESPACE tblspcname], PARTITION partition_name CHECK(...) [USING
TABLESPACEtblspcname] ...
];
And (if we use the ALTER TABLE to add partitions)
ALTER TABLE tabname
ADD PARTITION partition_name CHECK(...)
[USING TABLESPACE tblspcname];
Of course ALTER TABLE childtable SET TABLESPACE tblspcname; should not
cause any probs.
