- <command>INSERT</command> statements with <literal>ON CONFLICT</>
- clause are currently not allowed on partitioned tables.
+ Using the <literal>ON CONFLICT</literal> clause with partitioned tables
+ will cause an error if <literal>DO UPDATE</literal> is specified as the
+ alternative action, because unique or exclusion constraints can only be
+ created on individual partitions. There is no support for enforcing
+ uniqueness (or an exclusion constraint) across an entire partitioning
+ hierarchy.
