Change data partitioning

When replicating to a Amazon S3 target, for each of the source tables, a directory is created under the specified target directory. When Change Data Partitioning is enabled, an additional sub-directory is created under the corresponding table directory. The data and metadata (when the metadata option is enabled) files are located in the partition subdirectory, as in the following example:

	{Target Directory}
		{Table_1}
			{Partition_1}
				Data files
				DFM files
			{Partition_2}
				Data files
				DFM files
			{Partition_3}
				Data files
				DFM files
		{Table_2}
			{Partition_1}
				Data files
				DFM files
			{Partition_2}
				Data files
				DFM files
			{Partition_3}
				Data files
				DFM files

Information about the partitions is written to the attrep_cdc_partitions Control Table. For information about this table, see Change data partitions.
