I have a table that I would like to partition in MYSQL 5.5. That I know how to do, but what I also need is to specify a disk for each of my partitions.
For example,
...
PARTITION p0
VALUES LESS THAN (1288562400000)
DATA DIRECTORY ="C:\\foo\\bar"
INDEX DIRECTORY ="C:\\foo\\baz",
...
Mind that this needs NO_DIR_IN_CREATE to be off
As user963602 points out, this doesn't directly work on windows due to a MySQL bug, see my comment for a workaround
InnoDB SE won't support the specifying the disk/mount :(
