Go Up to Partitioning a Table

In the Subpartition Editor, select the Subpartition Type. Options include:

  • Hash. Hash partitioning distributes data based on the result of running the partitioning key through a hashing algorithm.
  • List. List partitioning maps rows to partitions based on discrete values.
  • Range. Range partitioning distributes data based on a given range, as in time intervals.

On the Columns tab, move the appropriate columns from the Available Columns list to the Selected Columns list to work with those columns.
