Oracle Error ORA-39284: Cannot alter the list values of a list subpartition: string

Oracle Error Message

ORA-39284: Cannot alter the list values of a list subpartition: string

Reason for the Error

DBMS_METADATA_DIFF was comparing two tables subpartitioned by list, one of which has a subpartition with the same name but a different values list as a subpartition in the other. There is no SQL ALTER statement to change the list values of a list subpartition.

Solution

The difference cannot be eliminated with an SQL ALTER statement.
