Hi 

You can use the ALTER TABLE command to add partitions to the existing table without dropping it. Here’s a simplified approach:

Add Partitions Directly:
ALTER TABLE XYZ
ADD PARTITION p1 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('2023-01-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD'));

ALTER TABLE XYZ
ADD PARTITION p2 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('2024-01-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD'));

Rebuild Indexes (if necessary):
ALTER INDEX index_name REBUILD;
This approach modifies the existing table to include partitions without needing to drop and recreate it.
