DROP SEQUENCE
Removes a sequence.
Synopsis
DROP SEQUENCE [IF EXISTS] <name> [, ...] [CASCADE | RESTRICT]
Description
DROP SEQUENCE
removes sequence number generators. You must own the sequence to drop it (or be a superuser).
Parameters
IF EXISTS
Do not throw an error if the sequence does not exist. Cloudberry Database issues a notice in this case.
name
The name (optionally schema-qualified) of the sequence to remove.
CASCADE
Automatically drop objects that depend on the sequence, and in turn all objects that depend on those objects.
RESTRICT
Refuse to drop the sequence if any objects depend on it. This is the default.
Examples
Remove the sequence myserial
:
DROP SEQUENCE myserial;
Compatibility
DROP SEQUENCE
conforms to the SQL standard, except that the standard allows only one sequence to be dropped per command. Also, the IF EXISTS
option is a Cloudberry Database extension.
