<p>
Set up partitioning for a database. Partitioning may be used on either BTREE or HASH databases.
Partitions may be specified by either a set of keys specifying a range of values in each partition
or with a callback function that returns the number of the partition to put a specific key.
Partition range keys may only be specified for BTREE databases.
</p>
<p>
Partitions are implimented as separate database files and can help reduce contention within a logical
database. Contention can come from multiple threads of control accessing database pages simultaniously.
Typically these pages are the root of a btree and the metadata page which contains allocation information
in both BTREE and HASH databases. Each partition has its own metadata and root pages.

</div>
</div>
</div>
<p>
Exactly one of the parameters
<span class="bold"><strong>keys</strong></span> and
<span class="bold"><strong>partition_fcn</strong></span> must be NULL.

<div class="sect3" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<div class="titlepage">
<div>
<div>
<h4 class="title"><a id="idp5763280"></a>parts</h4>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p>
The <span class="bold"><strong>parts</strong></span> parameter is the number of partitions to create.
The value must be 2 or greater.
</p>
</div>
<div class="sect3" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<div class="titlepage">
<div>
<div>
<h4 class="title"><a id="idp5749232"></a>keys</h4>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p>
The <span class="bold"><strong>keys</strong></span> parameter is an
array of DBT structures containing the keys that specify
the range of key values to be stored in each partition.
Each key specifies the minimum value that may be stored in
the corresponding partition. The number of keys must be
one less than the number of partitions specified by the
<span class="bold"><strong>parts</strong></span> parameter since the
first partition will hold any key less than the first key
in the array.

</div>
</div>
</div>
<p>
The <span class="bold"><strong>db_partition_fcn</strong></span>
parameter is the application-specified partitioning
function. The function returns an integer which will be
used modulo the number of partitions specified by the
<span class="bold"><strong>parts</strong></span> parameter.
The function will be called with two parameters:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist">
<ul type="disc">
<li>
<p>
<code class="literal">db</code>
</p>
<p>
The <span class="bold"><strong>db</strong></span> parameter is the database handle.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
<code class="literal">key</code>
</p>
<p>
The <span class="bold"><strong>key</strong></span> parameter
is the key for which a partition number should be
returned.
</p>
</li>
