Hi all,
I created a partition on a timstamp column ( dt_dtamp ) in mysql-5.1.58
testing table.But as all of us know that partitioned column need to be
primary key.
I have already id column as primary key but my application cann't afford
primary key ('id','dt_stamp') in a table.
I thought & tried PRIMARY KEY ( 'id','dt_dtamp') & UNIQUE ('id') will work
but below error came :
ERROR 1503 (HY000): A UNIQUE INDEX must include all columns in the table's
partitioning function
as it is clearly mentioned in
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/partitioning-limitations-partitioning-keys-unique-keys.html
.
Is it possible i can create partitioning on a substring of varchar(255) (
id ) column. Below are the some contents of my id column :-
0038000-120614070130414-sudoie-sudoi-C@86 |
| 0038000-120614070130414-sudoie-sudoi-C@87 |

| 0038000-120614070130414-sudoie-sudoi-C@96 |
It includes date in it. Can i make my partitioning on string after first
hyphen : 120614
Is it possible in mysql5.1.58 or may be higher versions so that i have only
primary key ('id') on my table. Need a crack for it.
Thanks
