The CHANGE PARTITION command modifies a partition by performing
a change in place. CDO changes the values you specify, and other
values remain the same.
Because a partition is a nonversioned element, CDO does not
accept a branch designation or a version number in the partition
name.
The LOOKASIDE_PARTITION clause modifies the list of partitions
whose contents are visible through the partition you are
modifying.
The PARENT_PARTITION clause modifies the partition hierarchy by
naming an owner for an existing parent (owner) partition. This
clause can be specified only once during the lifetime of the
partition, in either the DEFINE PARTITION or CHANGE PARTITION
command.
The AUTOPURGE and NOAUTOPURGE keywords redefine the autopurge
property for the partition. The value of this property indicates
whether or not CDO automatically purges intermediate versions of
elements in the partition when you promote the latest version.
