One would have to ask why DBMS_REDEFINITION doesn't meet your needs. Swapp= ing a table to a partitioned table like this seems to be one of the few rea= l uses of the package in a 24x7 environment.

Subject: Partitioning a live table

Does anyone know of a technique to change a table into a range partitioned table in a 24 * 7 system?
I have looked at dbms_redefinition package already and it does not fulfill my requirements.

I need to be able to convert table into a range partition table along the column date. Keep the original table name and all the constraints and RI.

Can anyone provide some insight?
