Unique Indexes

GaussDB(DWS) does not support the combination of unique indexes (constraints) and primary key constraints. DSC will perform adaptation based on GaussDB(DWS) features during migration.

If MySQL unique indexes (constraints) and primary key constraints are used together during migration, OLAP distribution keys may become unavailable. Therefore, this scenario is not supported by DSC.

  1. For a unique inline index, if the primary key index and the unique index are the same column, DSC will remove the unique index during migration.

    CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `public`.`runoob_dataType_test`

  2. If there is a unique index created by ALTER TABLE, DSC will create a normal index based on GaussDB(DWS) features.
