Went for the documentation answer - 1 and 1.

OPS! I don't find the updated documentation and I can't try it.

In the example script the clause "WITH (MEMORY_OPTIMIZED=ON)" is missing.

Not quite correct. Try using 0 for increment Y. It is disallowed.

Are you sure that's right? In the page the answer links to, I see this:

As others have pointed out, this documentation also contradicts your answer:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/in-memory-oltp/implementing-identity-in-a-memory-optimized-table?view=sql-server-2017

Thank you

This is what I get in SQL Server 2017 when I attempt to create a memory-optimized table with initial and increment both equal to 5:

I liked the question too and got it right but although 0 is a valid integer it is not ever valid for the increment "Y" value.

I don't get it. All the documentation links posted say it has to be 1 and 1 for memory-optimized tables. The example posted above shows an error message stating it has to be 1 and 1. The code in the question does not include WITH(MEMORY_OPTIMIZED=ON) so technically anything could be used for the IDENTITY in just that fragment. But it is stated that memory-optimized is the intended goal and that fragment is not terminated with a semicolon. One would assume that WITH(MEMORY_OPTIMIZED=ON) is the next line after the code shown.

So where is the evidence that anything other than (1,1) works with memory optimized tables?

Apologies for this. I misplaced the testing script, but only 1 should be allowed.

Not sure what I was thinking.
