TITLE:  %RDB-F-UNS-RCI Using Database Service with Distributed Option


PRODUCT:    Distributed Option 7.*

RELATED
PRODUCTS:   SQL/Services 7.*


OP/SYS:     OpenVMS VAX, OpenVMS AXP

SOURCE:     Oracle Worldwide Customer Support


PROBLEM:

Distributed Option v7.00
Rdb v7.0-01
SQL/Services v7.00

Attaching to a Distributed Option database using a database service with
authorization by connect user fails with:

     [Oracle][ODBC][Rdb]%RDB-F-UNS-RCI, RCI call rdb_set_authorization
     is not supported by DataBase Integrator (#-1)


What works:

  Generic service authorization by either connect username or service
    name  - to an Rdb database.
  Generic service authorization by either connect username or service
    name - to a Distributed Option database.
  Database service authorization by either connect username or
    service name - to an Rdb database.
  Database service authorization by service name only - to a Distributed
    Option database.
                                         

What fails:

  Database service authorization by connect username - to a Distributed
    Option database.


SOLUTION:

This is a restriction.  Use either a generic service where authorization is by
either service name or connect username, or use a database service where
authorization is by service name only to access a distributed option database
from SQL/Services.
