I have an existing database with tables which each have 4 partitions (there are tables using both RANGE and HASH partitioning).
I need to import it into another database with a pre-created schema where the same tables will have 8 partitions.
How do I do this? Does this “just work” if I do a table-level import?
Yes. Use the
IGNORE=Ysetting and have the table precreated in the target schema/database the way you want it physically organized. The main problem you can run into is if you don’t have the same “coverage” in the target system — if there aren’t partitions/subpartitions that can hold all the data you’re importing from the source.
