NOTE: If you delete a partition without archiving it, it is deleted from the partition list in the GUI.
At the bottom of the Partitions tab, there are several smaller tabs that allow the user to perform the
following operations:
 Add empty partitions to the database
Delete partitions from the database

Archive data from partitions to flat files in a specified, pre-existing directory

 Import Partitions
Drop Partitions

Many of these operations can be executed automatically in the database using stored procedures, but
this tab allows the administrator to perform these tasks manually.
To manage partitions:
1 Click the Partitions tab.
2 Select the table in the dropdown list.
