Entity framework 6.1 проверьте, не прикреплен ли он, затем прикрепите сбой

Я пытаюсь что-то сделать, и вот "демонстрация", очень простой пример. (эта демонстрация не имеет смысла, но дает общее представление о том, что я пытаюсь сделать)

я прокомментировал то, что я пробовал

есть ли способ сделать это без создания нового контекста?

это первая база данных на сервере sql

решение, в моем случае, это код

for (var i = 1; i < 3; ++i)
{
    lookup = db.LookupTables.Local.FirstOrDefault(x => x.LookupId == i);

    if (lookup == null)
    {
        lookup = new edmx.LookupTable() { LookupId = i };
        db.LookupTables.Attach(lookup);
    }

    main.LookupTables.Add(lookup);
}
