Question

After truncating table, and inserting new values in table, auto-increment values are not set to started value 1. When inserting new values it’s remember last index-ed value of auto-increment.

Colum in table named: ID

Index: PRIMARY,

Initial Value: 1

Cache size: 1

Increment: 1

[checked on IBM DB2 Control Center]

This query:

TRUNCATE TABLE ".$this->_schema.$table." DROP STORAGE IGNORE DELETE TRIGGERS IMMEDIATE

table is EMPTY.

After INSERT NEW VALUES example: INSERT INTO DB2INST1.db (val) VALUES ('abc') it’s INSERT with LAST

ID | val

55 | abc

But it SHOULD BE:

ID | val

1  | abc

I’m guessing here that your question is “how do you restart the IDENTITY sequence?” If that is the case, then you can reset it with the following SQL:

ALTER TABLE <table name> ALTER COLUMN <IDENTITY column> RESTART WITH 1

However, like @Ian said, what you are seeing is the expected behavior of a TRUNCATE.
