Partition Properties

To view or edit a partition's properties, double-click its Browser or list entry. The property sheet tabs and fields listed here are those available by default, before any customization of the interface by you or an administrator.

Property Description
Parent object [read only] Specifies the table of which the partition forms a part.

Name/Code/Comment

Identify the object. The name should clearly convey the object's purpose to non-technical users, while the code, which is used for generating code or scripts, may be abbreviated, and should not normally include spaces. You can optionally add a comment to provide more detailed information about the object. By default the code is generated from the name by applying the naming conventions specified in the model options. To decouple name-code synchronization, click to release the = button to the right of the Code field.

Stereotype

Extends the semantics of the object. You can enter a stereotype directly in this field, or add stereotypes to the list by specifying them in an extension file.

Values Specifies the upper bound of the partition
Generated Specifies whether the partition is generated automatically of whether it should be generated during a generate or update database command.
DBSpace Specifies the tablespace with which the partition is associated. Select a tablespace from the list or click the tools to the right of this field to create a new tablespace, delete or search for an existing tablespace, or open the property sheet of the currently selected one.
