Hi,
I am trying to use dbms_redefinition package to add a column to a table using primary key method
SQL> conn / as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> grant execute on sys.dbms_redefinition to hr;
Grant succeeded.
SQL> grant dba to hr;
Grant succeeded.
SQL> conn hr/<password>
Connected.
SQL> create table tab1(roll_no number constraint roll_pk primary key,last_name varchar2(30));
Table created.
SQL> insert into tab1 values (1,'Hall');
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> insert into tab1 values (2,'Mall');
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> insert into tab1 values (3,'Roll');
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
Adding required column
SQL>
SQL> alter table tab1 add(first_name varchar2(30));
Table altered.
Checking if table can be redefined
SQL> exec dbms_redefinition.can_redef_table('HR','TAB1',DBMS_REDEFINITION.CONS_USE_PK);
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
Creating interim table
SQL> create table tab2 as select roll_no,first_name,last_name from tab1 where 1=2;
Table created.
Adding primary key to interim table
SQL> alter table tab2 add constraint roll_pk_1 primary key (roll_no);
Table altered.
Starting redefinition :
SQL> exec dbms_redefinition.start_redef_table('HR','TAB1','TAB2','ROLL_NO,FIRST_NAME,LAST_NAME');
BEGIN dbms_redefinition.start_redef_table('HR','TAB1','TAB2','ROLL_NO,FIRST_NAME,LAST_NAME'); END;
