Partition Functions

 

 

The list displays the existing database partition functions as a grid with the following columns: Name, Parameter Data Type, Parameter Collation, Boundary Value, Creation Date, Modification Date, Description. If more convenient, you can change the order of the columns by dragging their headers horizontally. See the Working with grid section of the SQL Administrator documentation to find out operations that can be performed with the grid.

 

To open a Partition Function in the Partition Function Editor, double-click it in the grid. Alternatively, you can right-click the partition function alias and select the Edit Partition Function(s) context menu item.
