Hello All,

Which is the best/faster way to delete/drop a partition in a PPI table.

Say the table is PPI on the column year.

1. Delete all the rows where year = 2004

2. Use alter table DDL and drop the partition. How do you do this? Example would be helpful

I have to drop/delete partition and rebuild the partition. I would really appreciate if anyone would help me in this regard. Normally each partition has about 300million rows.

Thanks,

rakish
