Thanks!

I had seen that command, but hadn't realized the implication of it!

I'm guessing that global indexes would still have to be brought up to date. Would that occur automatically as part of the exchange command, or would they have to be dropped and rebuilt afterwards?

definitely consider using alter table exchange to lessen impact.

if you're not familiar with it, it lets you swap data between a partition and a non-partitioned table. so you load the data into a "temp non-paritioned table", build the needed indexes and then do the exchange, and poof its there(ok pretty darn close to poof).
