Liquibase skip generated changeset

Question

We have a running project and we started using Liquibase. I generated ChangeSets from our existing database. I have integrated liquibase into our solution and now I need the initial ChangeSet to be skipped on systems with existing database, but I need to run it on newly installed systems. Is there any out-of-the-box solution for this scenario?

Answer 1

Run Liquibase once with the parameter changelogSync (instead of update), e.g.:

liquibase --changeLogFile=my_changelog.xml --defaultsFile=db.properties changeLogSync

That will mark all changesets from your changelog as being executed in the target database.
