Subj:   Adding new columns to an 11 billion row table
 
From:   Anomy Anom



<-- Anonymously Posted: Monday, August 27, 2007 16:07 -->

Hi All,

We have a table that is about 1 terabyte in size with 11 billion rows.

What is the best way to add another 3 columns (not null with default value) to this table?

This table do have a couple of NUSIs and is partitioned by RANGE.

Also, the constraint is that we cannot have this table down for more than 3 hours.

Thanks for all your responses in advance.
