Schema not recognised

Hi,

I have two equal databases on the same server but DLM does not recognise that the databases are the same.
I did a SQL compare with every ignore option off, and without object filtering and tells me the databases are exactly the same.

    Hi Ronald,

    What status are the databases currently shown as? Are they red, i.e. drifted, or are they green, i.e. acknowledged?

    They are currently in drifted because i made the same change on both databases (so they are still the same), i did that so i could get the debug files (h x2)

    If you acknowledge the schema for one database and enter a schema name, does the other database go orange and display the schema name to reflect that the schema is known?

    No, the first database will change to the named scheme, the other database remains in drifted state

    Could there be differences in column order? DLM Dashboard will treat these as differences, but SQL Compare ignores them by default. Try doing a comparion using SQL Compare but with the Force column order option enabled. Does that detect any differences?

    Was this ever resolved, I'm having the same issue. SQL Compare has no differences but says that one of my databases has drifted.

    I'm sorry to say it's a known issue where DLM Dashboard incorrectly detects differences because sub-objects in the two databases are being scripted in different orders. However, we have not been able to prioritize it for bug fixing.
