<h1 class="topictitle1">From a nonpartitioned table to a partitioned table</h1>
<div><p>Use the <samp class="codeph">ADD <em>partitioning-clause</em></samp> of
the ALTER TABLE statement to change a nonpartitioned table into a partitioned
table. Altering an existing table to use partitions is similar to creating
a new partitioned table.</p>
<p>For example, to add range partitioning to the nonpartitioned
table PAYROLL, use the following code:</p>
<pre>ALTER TABLE PRODLIB.PAYROLL
ADD PARTITION BY RANGE(EMPNUM)
(STARTING(MINVALUE) ENDING(500) INCLUSIVE,
STARTING(501) ENDING(1000) INCLUSIVE,
STARTING(1001) ENDING MAXVALUE))</pre>
