     - You cannot alter a identity column to normal column and vice versa.
     - Identity columns are implicitly NOT NULL.
     - Identity columns don't enforce uniqueness automatically. Use UNIQUE or PRIMARY key for that.
+    - Increment value cannot be 0.
 
 Implementation:
     Two columns have been inserted in RDB$RELATION_FIELDS: RDB$GENERATOR_NAME and RDB$IDENTITY_TYPE.
