I'm not clear what problem you're reporting. If you use ONLY, then the
command doesn't cascade to create the index on partitions, and the index
is marked invalid. If you add the constraint to each partition and
ALTER INDEX ATTACH PARTITION, the index on t1 should become valid when
every partition of the table has its index.
