I get:

[Code: , SQL State: 42P01]  ERROR: relation 
"udm_asset_type_definition_id_seq" does not exist
   Position: 16

This:

asset_registry_admins

CREATE TABLE udm_asset_type_definition (
     def_id bigint DEFAULT nextval('udm_asset_type_definition_def_id_seq'::regclass) NOT NULL,
     def_name character varying(32) NOT NULL,
);


ALTER TABLE udm_asset_type_definition OWNER TO asset_registry_admins;

--
-- Name: udm_asset_type_definition udm_asset_type_definition_def_name_key; 
Type: CONSTRAINT; Schema: main; Owner: asset_registry_admins

ALTER TABLE ONLY udm_asset_type_definition
     ADD CONSTRAINT udm_asset_type_definition_def_name_key UNIQUE
