Re: Disabling Constraints

To disable a constraint:

alter table <table-name> disable constraint <constraint-name> ;

should do the trick.

Assuming you don't have any constraint violations, the following should work just fine to enable the constraint:

alter table <table-name> enable constraint <constraint-name> ;
