Solutions

1. Ensure the sequence/table used by the legacy HiLo optimizer exists and is initialized for the no-tenant context.

When it happens

Trigger: Thrown when an identifier optimizer cannot find its previous generation state after the no-tenant state was cleaned up or reset.

Common situations: Typical situations: concurrent id generation while the SessionFactory is shutting down; custom tenant handling that clears the optimizer state; race conditions during schema export.
