CREATE TABLE LIKE is useful to create a new partition from a template table. We can use 3 options (INCLUDING DEFAULTS, CONSTRAINTS and INDEXES) to copy more parameters from the template, but there are still some uncopied parameters:
1. column storage parameters (toast options) 2. reloptions on table (on index is copied already) 3. comments I'd like to modify CREATE TABLE LIKE to copy those parameters. Especially 1 and 2 are important when we use CREATE TABLE LIKE on partitioning because all of the child tables should have same physical properties. I'm thinking to modify 1 and 2 to be copied as default from a tempalte to a new table because reloptions of indexes are automatically copied already. I'm not sure for 3, but as of now I have a plan to add INCLUDING COMMENTS option to CREATE TABLE LIKE. Comments welcome.
