How write a procedure to drop all partitions older than 12 months? - oracle

I have a table with partition based on date field. Now, I have to write a procedure to drop all partitions older than 12 months.
I have the entries in the user_tab_partitions table in the following format.
PARTITION_NAME HIGH_VALUE
-------------- ----------
SYS_P28468650 20161221
SYS_P28468649 20161220
SYS_P28468648 20161219
SYS_P28468647 20161218
Kindly help me on how to do it

Looks like partitions are based on number, not DATE values.
Anyway, procedure like this should work:
DECLARE
HighValue NUMBER;
CURSOR TabPartitions IS
SELECT TABLE_NAME, PARTITION_NAME, HIGH_VALUE
FROM USER_TAB_PARTITIONS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'YOUR_TABLE'
ORDER BY TABLE_NAME, PARTITION_POSITION;
BEGIN
FOR aPart IN TabPartitions LOOP
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN :ret := '||aPart.HIGH_VALUE||'; END;' USING OUT HighValue;
IF TO_DATE(HighValue, 'YYYYMMDD') < ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE, -12) THEN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER TABLE YOUR_TABLE DROP PARTITION '||aPart.PARTITION_NAME||' UPDATE GLOBAL INDEXES';
END IF;
END LOOP;
END;
You can also use
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER TABLE YOUR_TABLE DROP PARTITION FOR ('||aPart.PARTITION_NAME||') UPDATE GLOBAL INDEXES';

How to automate partition drop and alter table activity in oracle sql developer

I need a procedure that will help me to drop partition older than 3 months (current month + last 3 older months). And then I need to create the new partition in sequence.
for example if current partition is May22, then I need to drop Jan22 and create Jan23 partition. Can someone help me with the procedure?
Here is the process we use to RENAME and drop PARTITIONs that are range INTERVAL. Just add the procedures to your scheduler.
They work great

t1 := dbms_utility.get_time;
dbms_output.put_line(p_cmd);
execute immediate p_cmd;
dbms_output.put_line((dbms_utility.get_time - t1)/100 || ' seconds');
END;

Use interval partitioning - available starting from Oracle 11.
You will need no procedure for a creation of a partition, because the partition will be created automatically with the first insert of the data with the corresponding date.
You will still need a basic code for drop partition - rolling window is not supported in the interval partitioning.
Using the partition extended names makes it much easier that if you use partition names
Example
Create Interval Partitioned Table
CREATE TABLE test_part
(trans_date DATE,
pad VARCHAR2(100)
)
PARTITION BY RANGE (trans_date)
INTERVAL (NUMTODSINTERVAL(1,'DAY'))
(
PARTITION part_init values LESS THAN (DATE'2020-01-01')
);
Note - use a less than date long in the history for the initial partition so that no data will be inserted there.
This partition will remain empty and will not be dropped, otherwise you encounter
ORA-14083: cannot drop the only partition of a partitioned table.
Create Partition
Now populate that table with few rows.
Note that there is no need for explicite create partition as we use interval partitioning and the partitions are created automatically.
insert into test_part(trans_date, pad)
select add_months(trunc(sysdate),-3)-rownum trans_date, 'X' pad
from dual connect by level <= 3;
Drop Partition
The implenetation of the rolling window consists of two steps
First check the transactions dates that are older than three months
select distinct trunc(trans_date) drop_date from test_part
where trans_date < add_months(trunc(sysdate),-3)
order by 1 desc;
DROP_DATE
-------------------
08.01.2022 00:00:00
07.01.2022 00:00:00
06.01.2022 00:00:00
Now you need to drop partitions for the above selected days.
You can use the *partition extended names to do so, without a need to know the partition name and the ugly LONG HIGH_VALUE.
Example for the day DATE'2022-07-07'
alter table TEST_PART drop partition for (DATE'2022-07-07');
You may pack the clean up logic in a simple procedure
create or replace procedure rolling_window as
v_sql varchar2(4000);
begin
for cur in (
select distinct trunc(trans_date) drop_date from test_part
where trans_date < add_months(trunc(sysdate),-3)
order by 1 desc)
loop
v_sql := q'[alter table TEST_PART drop partition for (DATE']'||
to_char(cur.drop_date,'YYYY-MM-DD')||q'[') ]';
dbms_output.put_line(v_sql);
execute immediate v_sql;
end loop;
end;
/
If you use global indexes you may want to add the clause UPDATE INDEXES in the ALTER TABLEto keep the index usable after the operation.

Oracle dropping last PARTITION for a table

I'm trying to drop all partitions for a table and I'm running into the following error:
ORA-14083: cannot drop the only partition of a partitioned table ORA-06512:
I know I can drop the table and recreate it but I want to see if my procedure can be modified to use an EXCEPTION that sets the retention to nothing, drops the PARTITION and sets the INTERVAL back to its original value?
Any help and expertise would be greatly appreciated. Below is my test CASE.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE ddl(p_cmd varchar2)

Your question says "drop the last partition" which can be different to "drop the only partition"
As stated already in comments, you cannot drop the partition when only one partition is left. If you like to remove the data, then you can TRUNCATE the partition.
This PL/SQL Block should cover all your cases:
CREATE TABLE PARTITION_RETENTION (
TABLE_NAME VARCHAR2(30),
RETENTION INTERVAL DAY(3) TO SECOND(0) --> More generic than number of days
);

Procedure to create partition table on daily basis, truncate old partition & records

I have written 1 Stored Procedure where it should create new partition on daily basis, truncate partition & records older than 9 months. Below is the SP-
create or replace procedure sp_partn as
hm varchar2(255);
mm varchar2(50);
yr varchar2(50);
dd varchar2(10);
ym varchar2(50);
dt varchar2(50);
procedure tbl1_prtn as
begin
for i in (select partition_name, high_value from user_tab_partition where table_name='tbl1')
loop
hm := i.high_value;
mm := substr(hm,6,7);
yr := substr(hm,1,4);
dd := substr(hm,9,10);
ym := yr||mm||dd;
dt := to_date(ym,'yyyymmdd');
if sysdate >= add_months(dt, 9) then
execute immediate 'alter table tbl1 drop partition' || i.partition_name;
end if;
end loop;
end tbl1_prtn;
begin
tbl1_prtn;
end sp_partn;
/
When i execute above SP then neither partition create or neither drop partition of older than 9 months. (eg: tbl_20211116)
run
SELECT HIGH_VALUE FROM USER_TAB_PARTITIONS
because for a date partition, the HIGH_VALUE is normally something like "TO_DATE(' 2016-01-04 00:00:00', 'SYYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'" so I'm not sure your substr commands will work. A better option might be:
hm := i.high_value;
execute immediate 'select '||hm||' from dual' into dt;
which will be immune to string position etc.
If you store dates as dates instead of strings it will make your life much easier and you can use INTERVAL PARTITIONs and this will solve your problem.

Select INTO with binding parameters not working with execute immediate

I have the following query that returns 1 when executed:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM TABLE_NAME WHERE Column1='x' AND Column2='y';
In my PL/SQL block, I need to evaluate the condition above in order to execute the business logic. Below is a simplified version:
DECLARE
column1 VARCHAR(20):='x';
column2 VARCHAR(20):='y';
rows_no NUMBER :=0;
sql_query VARCHAR2(200) :='SELECT COUNT(*) FROM TABLE_NAME WHERE Column1=:1 AND Column2=:2';
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE sql_query INTO rows_no USING column1, column2;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('ROWS NO: '|| rows_no);
END;
The result from the execution of the PL/SQL block is 0 that is different from the result when the query is executed that is 1. I think I abiding by the rules of the binding parameter to query select into in the PL/SQL. I will appreciate any help or guide.
Best Regards,
Rando.
P.S
When I make the modification below :
DECLARE
column1 VARCHAR(20):='x';
column2 VARCHAR(20):='y';
rows_no NUMBER :=0;
sql_query VARCHAR2(200) :='SELECT COUNT(*) FROM TABLE_NAME WHERE Column1=''x'' AND Column2=''y''';
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE sql_query INTO rows_no;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('ROWS NO: '|| rows_no);
END;
The result is: 1
I have a loop that reads from an excel file and inserts it into the database table(Table_name). The result above is needed to prevent the insertion of dublicates records. The commit is issued at the end of the procedure.
That means that if a record is added from the procedure it remains uncommitted till the procedure finishes.
I doubt this is a problem, uncommitted inserts are not accessible from other connections but in the current connection, they should be accessible. The following has all the simplified logic of the plsql block:
DECLARE;
--declaration variables
BEGIN
LOOP
-- fetching information from excel file
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE sql_query INTO rows_no;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('ROWS NO: '|| rows_no);
IF rows_no=0 THEN
-- insert the information read from excel in database table
rows_inserted:=rows_inserted+1;
END IF;
END LOOP;
IF rows_inserted>0 THEN
COMMIT;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('ROWS INSERTED: '||rows_inserted);
ELSE
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('No rows were inserted');
END IF;
END
The problem is most probably outside from Oracle, please try to re-test following script
(The output is shown as comment)
create table tab (column1 varchar2(1), column2 varchar2(1));
set SERVEROUTPUT ON
DECLARE
column1 VARCHAR(20):='x';
column2 VARCHAR(20):='y';

How to write select plSQL script by filtering the value in Partition and then subpartition

I have a table which has Partitions and subpartitions. I have to first filter the results of Partition's High_Value (TO_DATE(' 2020-03-29 00:00:00', 'SYYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS', 'NLS_CALENDAR=GREGORIAN')) with less than some date value and then in the result set filter with Subpartion High value with some text value and if the condition satisfy's then drop that sub partition. I have written the code until given below, but not sure how to proceed further. Can someone please help on how to declare d_tmp and then loop through each subpartion and check
DECLARE
CURSOR get_parts IS
select partition_name, high_value
from ALL_TAB_PARTITIONS
where table_name = 'TempTable';
l_tmp LONG;
d_tmp DATE;
BEGIN
FOR part_rec IN get_parts
LOOP
l_tmp := part_rec.high_value;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT ' || SUBSTR(l_tmp, 1, 90) || ' FROM DUAL' INTO d_tmp;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE( to_char(d_tmp, 'DD-MM-YYYY'));
END LOOP;
END;
You are most of the way there. You just loop around the sub partitions for that partition
DECLARE
CURSOR get_parts IS
select partition_name, high_value
from ALL_TAB_PARTITIONS
where table_name = 'TEMPTABLE';
l_tmp LONG;
d_tmp DATE;
l_tmp2 LONG;
BEGIN
FOR part_rec IN get_parts
LOOP
l_tmp := part_rec.high_value;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT ' || SUBSTR(l_tmp, 1, 90) || ' FROM DUAL' INTO d_tmp;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE( to_char(d_tmp, 'DD-MM-YYYY'));
for i in (
select subpartition_name, high_value
from ALL_TAB_SUBPARTITIONS
where table_name = 'TEMPTABLE'
and partition_name = get_parts.partition_name
)
loop
l_tmp2 := i.high_value;
--
-- your checks
--
if [checks passed] then
execute immediate 'alter table TEMPTABLE drop subpartition '||i.subpartition_name;
end loop;
END LOOP;
END;
