BTW, when the both tables refer to tr_test1 directly the same thing happens on truncating: create table tr_test1(id1 int, primary key(id1)); create table tr_test2(id2 int, id int, primary key(id2), foreign key (id) references tr_test1(id1) MATCH SIMPLE ON UPDATE RESTRICT ON DELETE RESTRICT); create table tr_test3(id3 int, id int, primary key(id3), foreign key (id) references tr_test1(id1) MATCH SIMPLE ON UPDATE RESTRICT ON DELETE RESTRICT); insert into tr_test1(id1) values (1); insert into tr_test2(id2,id) values (1,1); insert into tr_test2(id2,id) values (2,1); insert into tr_test3(id3,id) values (1,1); truncate tr_test1; -- No message about tr_test3 ! __ERROR: cannot truncate a table referenced in a foreign key constraint __SQL state: 0A000 __Detail: Table "tr_test2" references "tr_test1". __Hint: Truncate table "tr_test2" at the same time, or use TRUNCATE ...
