Hi Greg,

Thanks for your response.

Currently, such records are left in the overflow partition and its responsibility
of user to insert them into partitioned-table which will then re-direct those to
appropriate partitions.

What happens to records in the overflow table when you add a new
partition whose range covers their values?
