Generate only partial bitstream not the full bitstream

In Partial Reconfiguration flow, I've noticed that when I compile a Persona Implementation, it generates both the full bitstream(.sof) and partial bitstreams for all PR partitions(.pmsf and .rbf...

    The .sof files for each implementation revision allow you to test your design with that persona in place without having to perform a PR first. If you don't use them, just ignore or trash them.

    Once you have a .pmsf file for a partition, use Convert Programming Files to create a .rbf for it. Your workaround is saying that partition_2 is a SUPR (static update PR) region. Normally a .rbf file is created for a SUPR region even though you can't use that .rbf to PR a SUPR region during runtime (why it's call static). I guess I'm not sure what your goal is with (2).
