How Does Partition Assignment Relate to Transactions in Sybase?
Answer:
A user is assigned to a partition for the duration of a transaction. Assignment of partitions resumes with the first insert in a new transaction. The user holds the lock, and therefore partition, until the transaction ends.
For this reason, if you are inserting a great deal of data, you should batch it into separate jobs, each within its own transaction. See "How Do I Take Advantage of Table Partitioning with bcp in?", for details.
