Provides information about remote tables with primary keys that correspond to a specified foreign key.
The server must be defined with the CREATE SERVER statement to use this system procedure.
Syntaxsp_remote_imported_keys( @server_name , @sp_name [, @sp_owner [, @sp_qualifier ] ] )
Arguments@server_name Use this optional CHAR(128) parameter to specify the server the foreign key table is located on. A value is required for this parameter.
@sp_name Use this optional CHAR(128) parameter to specify the table containing the foreign key. A value is required for this parameter.
@sp_owner Use this optional CHAR(128) parameter to specify the foreign key table's owner.
@sp_qualifier Use this optional CHAR(128) parameter to specify the database containing the foreign key table.
Result set| Column name | Data type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| pk_database | CHAR(128) | The database containing the primary key table. |
| pk_owner | CHAR(128) | The owner of the primary key table. |
| pk_table | CHAR(128) | The primary key table. |
| pk_column | CHAR(128) | The name of the primary key column. |
| fk_database | CHAR(128) | The database containing the foreign key table. |
| fk_owner | CHAR(128) | The foreign key table's owner. |
| fk_table | CHAR(128) | The foreign key table. |
| fk_column | CHAR(128) | The name of the foreign key column. |
| key_seq | SMALLINT | The key sequence number. |
| fk_name | CHAR(128) | The foreign key name. |
| pk_name | CHAR(128) | The primary key name. |
RemarksForeign keys reference a row in a separate table that contains the corresponding primary key. This procedure allows you to obtain a list of the remote tables with primary keys that correspond to a particular foreign table. The sp_remote_imported_keys result set includes the database, owner, table, column, and name for both the primary and the foreign key, and the foreign key sequence for the foreign key columns. The result set may vary because of the underlying ODBC and JDBC calls, but information about the table and column for a primary key is always returned.
