The evidence says otherwise, which leads to:

So nothing ever pulls data out of the database with SELECTS?

There is no monitoring software in the mix?

There is no application using the database?

Hi Melvin,

I already reset id to correct value after this happen. This is a production

sequence of id to correct value.

Below is current result:

increment_by  | 1
max_value | 9223372036854775807

Hi Amitabh,

So what does the sequence query show?

As an example in psql:

test=# create table serial_test(id serial PRIMARY KEY, fld_1 varchar);
CREATE TABLE

test=# \d serial_test
  Table "public.serial_test"
 Column |   Type|Modifiers

 id | integer   | not null default 
nextval('serial_test_id_seq'::regclass)
 fld_1  | character varying |
Indexes:

The above shows that the sequence associated with the serial type is:
'serial_test_id_seq'

The below shows how to select from that sequence:

test=# select * from serial_test_id_seq ;
-[ RECORD 1 ]-+
sequence_name | serial_test_id_seq
last_value| 1
start_value   | 1

For sequence named ts_stamp_test_id_seq:

You are looking for whether is_cycled = t

Per the docs:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/sql-createsequence.html

"CYCLE
NO CYCLE

 The CYCLE option allows the sequence to wrap around when the maxvalue or 
minvalue has been reached by an ascending or descending sequence respectively. 
If the limit is reached, the next number generated will be the minvalue or 
maxvalue, respectively.

 If NO CYCLE is specified, any calls to nextval after the sequence has 
reached its maximum value will return an error. If neither CYCLE or NO CYCLE 
are specified, NO CYCLE is the default.

Then per Amitabh Kant's suggestion take a look at the cycle setting for the 
sequences.

For sequence named ts_stamp_test_id_seq:

test=# select * from ts_stamp_test_id_seq ; -[ RECORD 1 
]-+- sequence_name | ts_stamp_test_id_seq
last_value| 6
start_value   | 1
increment_by  | 1
max_value | 9223372036854775807
min_value | 1
cache_value   | 1
log_cnt   | 0
is_cycled | f
is_called | t


You are looking for whether is_cycled = t

Per the docs:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/sql-createsequence.html

"CYCLE
NO CYCLE

 The CYCLE option allows the sequence to wrap around when the maxvalue or 
minvalue has been reached by an ascending or descending sequence respectively. 
If the limit is reached, the next number generated will be the minvalue or 
maxvalue, respectively.

 If NO CYCLE is specified, any calls to nextval after the sequence has 
reached its maximum value will return an error. If neither CYCLE or NO CYCLE 
are specified, NO CYCLE is the default.

Sounds like something that might happen if you'd just bulk loaded the data and 
didn't set the sequences.

If you really did use serial types then you could set all these to the max 
value of the column which they belong to.

The following will give you a list of commands to execute:

SELECT 'select setval(''' || c.relname || ''', max(' ||
quote_ident(a.attname) || ')) from ' || d.refobjid::regclass || ';'
FROM pg_depend d
INNER JOIN pg_class c ON d.objid = c.oid INNER JOIN pg_attribute a ON 
a.attrelid = d.refobjid AND a.attnum = d.refobjsubid WHERE c.relkind = 'S' AND 
d.refclassid = 1259;

You may like to check that returns 26 rows as you expect and verify that all 
those sequences do need reset before running the command.

If you're running Postgres 9.6 and using psql, you can execute the above then 
execute \gexec which will execute the previous result set as commands.
