There was some discussion about having a version number in the partition descriptor somewhere as a means to implement this. I couldn't figure out how that would work, or what the version number would be attached to. Surely the idea wasn't to increment the version number to every partition other than the one being detached? -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
