><H2
>Notes</H2
><P
>   <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>REASSIGN OWNED</TT
> is often used to prepare for the
   removal of one or more roles. Because <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>REASSIGN
   OWNED</TT
> does not affect objects within other databases,
   it is usually necessary to execute this command in each database
   that contains objects owned by a role that is to be removed.
  </P
><P
>   <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>REASSIGN OWNED</TT
> requires privileges on both the
   source role(s) and the target role.
  </P
><P
>   The <A
HREF="sql-drop-owned.html"
>DROP OWNED</A
> command is an alternative that
   simply drops all the database objects owned by one or more roles.
  </P
><P
>   The <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>REASSIGN OWNED</TT
> command does not affect any
   privileges granted to the <TT
CLASS="REPLACEABLE"
><I
>old_roles</I
></TT
> for
   objects that are not owned by them.  Use <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>DROP OWNED</TT
> to
   revoke such privileges.
