Hi,I have an oracle background and have been placed into a SQL Server role. I have been working with SQL Server for a little over a month.Recently we've had the issue where we really needed to split up the partition to increase performance (everything in one huge partition). My problem is that some of these tables have composite primary keys. So the question is how do you do this.The following clearly don't work:CREATE PARTITION FUNCTION cicm_dnc_file_detail_pf (INT,INT)AS RANGE LEFT FOR VALUES (1,1)
CREATE PARTITION FUNCTION cicm_dnc_file_detail_pf (INT,INT)AS RANGE LEFT FOR VALUES (1),(1)
It states: Msg 7703, Level 16, State 1, Line 49Can not create RANGE partition function with multiple parameter types.Which makes me think that I have to use something else other than RANGE LEFT, maybe I need to create a partition function for each key or perhaps I'm just way off.I'd just like to say that I have gotten the partioning to work for tables with a single primary key without problems, so I do understand partitioning. I'm just a little stuck on this. I can't find any examples on google.Thanks for any help you can give me.Adam
