why do you want to do that? the partitions with associated route domains have probably been created for a reason. are you sure they aren't needed anymore?

 

unfortunately moving something from a partition isn't as easy as just changing the partition via the GUI. you will probably end up with removing element by element from the partition and recreating in the common partition.

 

you could try to get the text base config from the different .conf files and merge those together, but that requires some feeling about what you are doing.

 

if you are really just turned in the a environment with a common partition and two different config partitions into one without config partitions you could also just start from scratch.
