though i know this is bad practice (to have keys defined in tables), my
current employer currently has tables with...

L_ID for column ID
BIGINT not null generated always as
identity (start with 1 increment by 1),

Now when this file is "re-homed" it knocks the auto generate row id out of
whack and creates a duplicate record error when a pgm tries to write to
it. And of course we have to manually reset the row id.

My guess is because of the (start with 1 increment by 1) - meaning, once it
is re-homed it somehow thinks it needs to start at 1 again.

Is that true? Ideally i'd like to remove the ID from being a primary key
on the table, but would at least removing (start with 1 increment by 1)
resolve the re-homing and duplicate record issue, or no? How exactly does
this work?
