Initialize the value for an identity column - HANA SPS8?

Question

Can initialize the value for the sequence (_SYS_SEQUENCE_) used for an identity column?
Thank you

Answer 1

Got it.
There are two ways a sequence can be reset:
alter sequence "UADMIN_USER"."_SYS_SEQUENCE_210253_#0_#" restart with 1
During a restart of the database, the system automatically executes the RESET BY statement and the sequence value is restarted with the value determined from the RESET BY subquery.
This sequence name I got from
But I also got the following error message when trying the first approach:
CREATE COLUMN TABLE TEST_TABLE (ID integer GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY(start with 2),COL2 VARCHAR(2));
select '"' || SCHEMA_NAME || '"."' || SEQUENCE_NAME || '"' AS SEQUENCE_NAME from SEQUENCES WHERE RESET_BY_QUERY LIKE '%TEST_TABLE%';
INSERT INTO TEST_TABLE(COL2) VALUES('r1');
INSERT INTO TEST_TABLE(COL2) VALUES('r2');
alter sequence "UADMIN_USER"."_SYS_SEQUENCE_210253_#0_#" restart with 1
Could not execute 'alter sequence "UADMIN_USER"."_SYS_SEQUENCE_210253_#0_#" restart with 1' in 259 ms 481 µs .

Let me know if you find something better.
