Example of Script to Create a Composite RANGE-HASH Partition Table (Doc ID 165924.1)

Modified: 04-Aug-2018 Type: SCRIPT
APPLIES TO:
Oracle Server - Enterprise Edition - Version 8.1.5.0 to 11.2.0.3 [Release 8.1.5 to 11.2]
Information in this document applies to any platform.
***Checked for relevance on 24-May-2012***
PURPOSE
The aim of this script will be to help in creating Composite
RANGE-HASH partitioned table.
The script is interactive. It will present the twice possibilities of
creating a RANGE-HASH partitioned table. It will ask you to give the
name of each partitioned table created with both methods. The content
of related dictionary views are then displayed. A pause is set between
each of the different screens, so its necessary to validate it to continue
the execution.
REQUIREMENTS
Execution Environment:
The script must be run under SQLPLUS environment.
CONFIGURING
The user which will execute this script must be granted at least with
CONNECT roles, and SELECT ANY TABLE, UNLIMITED TABLESPACE system
privileges.
INSTRUCTIONS
PROOFREAD THIS SCRIPT BEFORE USING IT! Due to differences in the way text
editors, e-mail packages, and operating systems handle text formatting (spaces,
tabs, and carriage returns), this script may not be in an executable state

when you first receive it. Check over the script to ensure that errors of
this type are corrected.The script will produce an output file named [outputfile].
The script will ask you to give 8 tablespace names. These tablespaces
will support the subpartition creations, so they should contain sufficient
free space.
You must choose the output file name which will trace the information
displayed. This file can be viewed in a browser or uploaded for support analysis.

This sample code is provided for educational purposes only and not supported by Oracle Support Services. It has been
tested internally, however, and works as documented. We do not guarantee that it will work for you, so be sure to test it
in your environment before relying on it.
