Is there a single column/value that you could do LIST partitioning on
instead of range or hash?

We have a table with around 80 million rows. The table has been partitioned
by hash as there is no clear way of partitioning depending on range etc..
The data is very unevenly distributed in these partitions. Some of them
even
have 3 times the number of rows as compared to the other partitions.
This application is being ported from Informix to Oracle (9i R2). In
informix the dba's had partitioned the table based on a function . He was
taking the mod of the number ( dividing by 10 ) . The values were then
placed in either of the 10 partitions  ranging from 0 - 9. This really gave
us very good distribution of data .Can we achieve something similar in 9i
with list partitioning.


TIA

Rishi
