List,

Oracle 8.1.7.4
OpenVMS 7.3-1
   I have to drop the current PK constraint on a partitioned table and
recreate it with additional columns. The table and partitions are quite
large 3GIG + and I was wondering if anyone has found a method if
creation the PK constraint one partition at a time.
 The current method I use is to alter table drop constraint xxx-pk.
Then I increase the temp tablespace to handle the new PK. Then I alter
table add constraint xxx-pk with the new columns added and list the
partitioning clauses and NOLOGGING. It takes about 12 hours to create
the PK so it must be done overnight when I am not on-site. I would like
to be able to create each partitions PK in a more manageable fashion.

 Is this possibly an Oracle wish list item?

Thanks,
Ron
