I would hope that this is normal, and I can see it being particularly
useful. We frequently run into problems where databases ahve been
reloaded, and the sequences have not been reset. And the DBAs are
not going to take notice unless it's shoved in their face. It's only
a NOTICE, so it shouldn't affect anything.

Subject: [SQL] NOTICE: generated by sequence nextval()
Postgresql 7.1.3-2
Red Hat 7.2
I've noticed that if I create a sequence, and then do a select on it
using nextval() everything works fine. However, if I drop the
sequence and then create it again, the same select statement
generates a NOTICE.
Is this normal behaviour or a bug? See below.
test=> create sequence serial;
CREATE
test=> select nextval('serial');
nextval
- ---------
1
(1 row)
test=> drop sequence serial;
DROP
test=> create sequence serial;
CREATE
test=> select nextval('serial');
NOTICE: serial.nextval: sequence was re-created
nextval
- ---------
1
(1 row)
