> Currently, constraint names are globally unique across all databases (assumption is that this may have done by design). Nevertheless, though behavior seems to be implementation specific, it would be interesting to limit the scope to uniqueness per database.
> Currently we do not store database information with the constraints. To change the scope to one db, we would need to store the DB_ID in the KEY_CONSTRAINTS table in metastore when we create a constraint and add the DB_ID to the PRIMARY KEY of that table. Some minor changes to the error messages would be needed too, since otherwise it would be difficult to identify the correct violation in queries that span across multiple databases. Additionally, the SQL scripts will need to be updated to populate the DB_ID when we upgrade to new version.
