Hi Carrie,
We are running TD 13.10 and I remember from earlier versiosn that there was a recommendation to not have too many empty partitions, ie not to over-partition the table. Does the collecting of stats on PARTITION mean that this is less restrictive now? We have just had to go through an excersise to alter tables and increase the end date of many date range partitions and have this tinme consuming, so I am wondering if we were to specify a end date 5 years or 10 years from now that has interval '1' day would be OK, if the stats on PARTITION were refreshed reguarlay!
