MariaDB Error 1510: Invalid Partition Reorganization
Description
This error indicates an incorrect usage of the `ALTER TABLE ... REORGANIZE PARTITION` statement in MariaDB. It occurs when you attempt to modify the total number of partitions for a table, such as adding or removing partitions, instead of merely reorganizing the data or definitions within the existing partition count.
Error Message
REORGANIZE PARTITION can only be used to reorganize partitions not to change their numbers
Known Causes
3 known causesChanging Partition Count
Using `REORGANIZE PARTITION` to increase or decrease the total number of partitions in a table, which is not its intended purpose.
Incorrect Statement Usage
Applying `REORGANIZE PARTITION` when a different `ALTER TABLE` clause, such as `ADD PARTITION` or `DROP PARTITION`, is required for the desired outcome.
Invalid Partition Merging/Splitting
Attempting to combine multiple existing partitions into fewer or split one into more, which implicitly changes the partition count and is not supported by this command.
