如果你想禁用数据库中的所有约束，只需运行以下代码:

-- disable all constraints
EXEC sp_MSforeachtable "ALTER TABLE ? NOCHECK CONSTRAINT all"

要将它们重新打开，运行:(打印当然是可选的，它只是列出表)

-- enable all constraints
exec sp_MSforeachtable @command1="print '?'", @command2="ALTER TABLE ? WITH CHECK CHECK CONSTRAINT all"

我发现它在将数据从一个数据库填充到另一个数据库时很有用。这是比放弃约束更好的方法。正如您所提到的，当删除数据库中的所有数据并重新填充它时(例如在测试环境中)，它非常方便。

如果您正在删除所有数据，您可能会发现这个解决方案是有用的。

有时禁用所有触发器也很方便，你可以在这里看到完整的解决方案。

一个脚本来管理它们:这个脚本将截断和删除命令与sp_MSforeachtable结合在一起，这样您就可以避免删除和重新创建约束——只需指定需要删除而不是截断的表，为了便于度量，我还包含了一个额外的模式过滤器(在2008r2中测试)。

declare @schema nvarchar(max) = 'and Schema_Id=Schema_id(''Value'')'
declare @deletiontables nvarchar(max) = '(''TableA'',''TableB'')'
declare @truncateclause nvarchar(max) = @schema + ' and o.Name not in ' +  + @deletiontables;
declare @deleteclause nvarchar(max) = @schema + ' and o.Name in ' + @deletiontables;        

exec sp_MSforeachtable 'alter table ? nocheck constraint all', @whereand=@schema
exec sp_MSforeachtable 'truncate table ?', @whereand=@truncateclause
exec sp_MSforeachtable 'delete from ?', @whereand=@deleteclause
exec sp_MSforeachtable 'alter table ? with check check constraint all', @whereand=@schema

标记为“905”的答案看起来不错，但不能工作。

下面的方法对我很有效。不能禁用任何主键、唯一键或默认约束。事实上，如果“sp_helpconstraint”在status_enabled中显示“n/a”-意味着它不能被启用/禁用。

生成脚本为DISABLE

select 'ALTER TABLE ' + object_name(id) + ' NOCHECK CONSTRAINT [' + object_name(constid) + ']'
from sys.sysconstraints 
where status & 0x4813 = 0x813 order by object_name(id)

——生成脚本以启用

select 'ALTER TABLE ' + object_name(id) + ' CHECK CONSTRAINT [' + object_name(constid) + ']'
from sys.sysconstraints 
where status & 0x4813 = 0x813 order by object_name(id)

最好的选择是DROP和CREATE外键约束。

我在这篇文章中没有找到对我“原样”工作的例子，如果外键引用不同的模式，一个不会工作，如果外键引用多列，另一个也不会工作。这个脚本同时考虑多个模式和每个外键的多个列。

下面是生成“ADD CONSTRAINT”语句的脚本，对于多列，它将用逗号分隔它们(确保在执行DROP语句之前保存此输出):

PRINT N'-- CREATE FOREIGN KEY CONSTRAINTS --';

SET NOCOUNT ON;
SELECT '
PRINT N''Creating '+ const.const_name +'...''
GO
ALTER TABLE ' + const.parent_obj + '
    ADD CONSTRAINT ' + const.const_name + ' FOREIGN KEY (
            ' + const.parent_col_csv + '
            ) REFERENCES ' + const.ref_obj + '(' + const.ref_col_csv + ')
GO'
FROM (
    SELECT QUOTENAME(fk.NAME) AS [const_name]
        ,QUOTENAME(schParent.NAME) + '.' + QUOTENAME(OBJECT_name(fkc.parent_object_id)) AS [parent_obj]
        ,STUFF((
                SELECT ',' + QUOTENAME(COL_NAME(fcP.parent_object_id, fcp.parent_column_id))
                FROM sys.foreign_key_columns AS fcP
                WHERE fcp.constraint_object_id = fk.object_id
                FOR XML path('')
                ), 1, 1, '') AS [parent_col_csv]
        ,QUOTENAME(schRef.NAME) + '.' + QUOTENAME(OBJECT_NAME(fkc.referenced_object_id)) AS [ref_obj]
        ,STUFF((
                SELECT ',' + QUOTENAME(COL_NAME(fcR.referenced_object_id, fcR.referenced_column_id))
                FROM sys.foreign_key_columns AS fcR
                WHERE fcR.constraint_object_id = fk.object_id
                FOR XML path('')
                ), 1, 1, '') AS [ref_col_csv]
    FROM sys.foreign_key_columns AS fkc
    INNER JOIN sys.foreign_keys AS fk ON fk.object_id = fkc.constraint_object_id
    INNER JOIN sys.objects AS oParent ON oParent.object_id = fkc.parent_object_id
    INNER JOIN sys.schemas AS schParent ON schParent.schema_id = oParent.schema_id
    INNER JOIN sys.objects AS oRef ON oRef.object_id = fkc.referenced_object_id
    INNER JOIN sys.schemas AS schRef ON schRef.schema_id = oRef.schema_id
    GROUP BY fkc.parent_object_id
        ,fkc.referenced_object_id
        ,fk.NAME
        ,fk.object_id
        ,schParent.NAME
        ,schRef.NAME
    ) AS const
ORDER BY const.const_name

下面是生成“DROP CONSTRAINT”语句的脚本:

PRINT N'-- DROP FOREIGN KEY CONSTRAINTS --';

SET NOCOUNT ON;

SELECT '
PRINT N''Dropping ' + fk.NAME + '...''
GO
ALTER TABLE [' + sch.NAME + '].[' + OBJECT_NAME(fk.parent_object_id) + ']' + ' DROP  CONSTRAINT ' + '[' + fk.NAME + ']
GO'
FROM sys.foreign_keys AS fk
INNER JOIN sys.schemas AS sch ON sch.schema_id = fk.schema_id
ORDER BY fk.NAME

SQL-92标准允许将约束声明为DEFERRABLE，以便在事务范围内(隐式或显式)延迟它。遗憾的是，SQL Server仍然缺少这个SQL-92功能。

对我来说，将约束更改为NOCHECK类似于动态更改数据库结构——删除约束当然是这样——这是需要避免的(例如，用户需要增加特权)。

我同意你的观点，哈姆林。当您使用SSIS传输数据或想要复制数据时，似乎很有必要暂时禁用或删除外键约束，然后重新启用或重新创建它们。在这些情况下，引用完整性不是问题，因为它已经在源数据库中进行了维护。所以，这件事你可以放心。
