This feature provides a simple and efficient way to clean up all detached partitions in one operation, helping to reclaim disk space and maintain table hygiene.How to use it
Use the following SQL syntax to drop all detached partitions from a table:ALTER TABLE <table_name> DROP DETACHED PARTITION ALLReplace
<table_name> with the target table name. This command removes all partitions currently in the detached state.
