<h1 class="topictitle1">Restrictions</h1>
<div><p>There are some restrictions for a partitioned table.</p>
<ul><li>Referential constraints are not allowed for a partitioned table.</li>
<li>If a primary key constraint for a partitioned table is added and then
dropped, the primary key index is also dropped.</li>
<li>If a primary key constraint is added to a partitioned table, and then
removed by the user, the user is not allowed to keep the table keyed.</li>
<li>If an existing nonpartitioned table does not have a primary key constraint,
but the table is keyed, the keys are removed when the table is changed to
a partitioned table.</li>
<li>DB2<sup>®</sup> Multisystem
files (distributed tables) are already partitioned across multiple servers
and cannot be partitioned across multiple members on a single system.</li>
<li>An update to the partitioning key that attempts to move a row to a different
partition is not allowed.</li>
<li>The number of partitioning keys is restricted to 120.</li>
<li>All SQL relative record processing is handled
as it is for DB2 Multisystem
support. The relative record number is determined in each individual partition,
not the table as a whole. For example, reading to record 27 means that you
read to record 27 in each partition. Each partition can contain its own record
27, none of which is the same.</li>
<li>There are some restrictions on the data type of a partition key column.
For range partitioning, the data type of a column used to partition a table
cannot be BLOB, CLOB, DBCLOB, DATALINK, floating-point type, or a distinct
type based on the these types. For hash partitioning, the data type of the
column used as part of the partition key cannot be LOB, DATE, TIME, TIMESTAMP,
floating-point type, or a distinct type based on one of these.</li>
<li>Applications using the following CL commands must be changed to use <samp class="codeph">Member
*ALL</samp> to process all partitions of a partitioned table: <ul><li><a href="../cl/clrpfm.htm">Clear Physical
