Symptoms

Due to DST (Daylight Savings Time) - Different timestamps can be translated to the same (local) time

Impact

Analytics database cannot create new partition after DST clock change

Conditions

DST clock change has occurred

Workaround

None

Fix Information

Appending the time-stamp to the partition name, so that if time is the same, the time-stamp will make the partition name different.
