Implementing an ILM System Manually Using Partitioning

5.4 Implementing an ILM System Manually Using Partitioning

You can manually implement an Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) system using partitioning.
Example 5-12 illustrates how to manually create storage tiers and partition a table across those storage tiers and then setup a virtual private database (VPD) policy on that database to restrict access to the online archive tier data.

REM Setup the tablespaces for the data 

REM These tablespaces would be placed on a High Performance Tier 
CREATE SMALLFILE TABLESPACE q1_orders DATAFILE 'q1_orders'
  SIZE 2M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1M MAXSIZE UNLIMITED LOGGING 
  EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO ;

CREATE SMALLFILE TABLESPACE q2_orders DATAFILE 'q2_orders'
  SIZE 2M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1M MAXSIZE UNLIMITED LOGGING 
  EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO ;

CREATE SMALLFILE TABLESPACE q3_orders DATAFILE 'q3_orders'
  SIZE 2M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1M MAXSIZE UNLIMITED LOGGING 
  EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO ;

CREATE SMALLFILE TABLESPACE q4_orders DATAFILE 'q4_orders'
  SIZE 2M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1M MAXSIZE UNLIMITED LOGGING

CREATE SMALLFILE TABLESPACE "2006_ORDERS" DATAFILE '2006_orders'
