Hi Álvaro,
Thank you for your answer. Good luck!
Meanwhile I did workaround using before update trigger to handle data in child tables and setting constraints as
deferredto don't lose data. I am testing it right now.
Regards,
Robert

Subject: Re: PostgreSQL v11.3 - Records are deleted from child table if partition key of parent table is changed
Hi Robert,
AFAIU the problem is that when the pof tuple migrates to pot, the partition-level FK constraint on polf sees the update
asa delete (because at that level that's what it is) and thus cascades to delete the tuple on polf. There is nothing
thatautomagically instantiates a new tuple in polt.
To fix this problem, we would need a mechanism to insert an equivalent referencing tuple in the other partition. I'm
notsure how would we achieve such a thing.
