I want to create a table with 12 partition (for each month) then within each month's data should be categories based on a column. The column will have 5 possible values (107,108,109,110,111). I know that Composite partition is more closer solution. I have done this but my values are stored in one sub-partition. Rest of sub partition is empty. But when I give higer value of column like 300,400. Other partitions start filling. How can I control this. Please help

Is there any solution?

One thing is very clear. you need partitioning by range in terms of months, one each for each month. So far the possible values of a column, question is whether you want subparitioning, the answer could be "may be not". What I can see is range partitioning on date and local partition index on the column you mentioned would be the solution. But I donot exactly what you dealing with, this is just a option.

Hope it helps.
