Description
An already existed table in columnstore is in a "fixed" destribution state.
extent elimination and partitions depends on the distribution order.
The only way to fix it, is to dump table and try to load it in sorted way with cpimport.
For very huge table the distribution order can make a difference.
There was some approaches in the past (MCOL-1297, MCOL-3579),
was rejected with "won't do", but this should be reconsidered,
because it can be have a big impact on performance.
