Hi all, I'm not sure if this question fits in the topic of this list. I'm interested in partitioning and it's the first time I'd use it. There is an issue I don't know how you handle it. Lets say I'm interested in store monthly based statistical data like the example of http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/ddl-partitioning.html. What I don't like of this approach is that the monthly tables, rules... must be created "manually" or at least I haven't found any other option. My question is how do you manage this? do you have a cron task that creates automatically these monthly elements (tables, rules, ... ) or there is another approach that doesn't require external things like cron only PostgreSQL. -- Arnau
