Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: More Partition attached to a synonym.
Even though it looks like a mess, I think you can clean things up nicely by dropping the table, and the synonym.
The synonym has been created as type 20 (when it should be 19), but when you do a drop table, it does not appear to have any problems cleaning out the 19s and the 20s (probably by some fluke that 20 is an index partition which gets dropped with the table).
You can test this by tracking the dictionary tables, obj$, partobj$, tab$, tabpart$, ind$, indpart$, seg$, before creating the situation, during, and after the drop, but of course you need to work this through with Oracle Support.

Hi All,
First off I did not receive the digest last night so if someone could forward me the digest or resend any emails on this topic directly to me it would be greatly appreciated. In summary, a table partitioned on the first of every month had a partition added when using a synonym name in the ALTER TABLE ADD PARTITION statement. The partition shows up in DBA_TAB_PARTITIONS associated with the synonym name There is no entry in DBA_SEGMENTS for the partition. The partition is currently 800MB in size and holds 15 million rows DML and data access on/to the data in the partition is fine. from OBJ$, the 2 problem entries and a good one OBJ# DATAOBJ# OWNER# NAME NAMESPACE SUBNAME TYPE#CTIME
---- -------- ------ ------------- ---------- ------------------ ----- ------- 3383 39 IMPRESSIONS 1 529-MAR-01 20817 20817 39 IMPRESSIONS 1 IMPRESSIONS_2001_08 20 23-JUL-01 20578 20943 39 IMPRESSIONS_TAB 1 IMPRESSIONS_2001_06 19 29-MAY-01 IMPRESSIONS is a private synonym (owned by the table owner) for IMPRESSIONS_TAB I do have a copy of the data, so I can drop the synonym., table and tablespace
but I am worried about my data dictionary.
TIA Dave
