Update existing IDs of changesets

I have to update IDs in all changesets to follow the convention of naming. What is a correct sequence of doing that?

  1. Update DATABASECHANGELOG table with new IDs
  2. Update XML with changesets with new IDs
  3. Clear checksums
  4. Run liqibase

?

Solution

  • Yes, sequence of

    1. Update DATABASECHANGELOG table with new IDs
2. Update XML with changesets with new IDs
3. Clear checksums (or just set databasechangelog.MD5SUM = null)
4. Run liquibase

    looks about right.

    Or if your changeSets are simple enough, you can just update xml changeset IDs and make sure all of them will fail with preConditions.
