Flush the cache when you alter a sequence
When you alter a sequence, the system attempts to preserve existing
cache loads on the host and the SPUs. The system, however, flushes
the cache under the following circumstances:
- The ALTER SEQUENCE statement includes RESTART WITH.
- The ALTER SEQUENCE statement changes the INCREMENT BY value of a sequence.
- The ALTER SEQUENCE statement raises the MINVALUE of an ascending sequence.
- The ALTER SEQUENCE statement lowers the MAXVALUE of a descending sequence.
Note: When you change a sequence and flush the cache,
change the starting value to ensure more sequential NEXT VALUE results.
