Description

ALL or ALL PRIVILEGES
Revokes one or more XSR object privileges from each authorization-name. The privileges revoked are those privileges on the identified XSR objects that were granted to the authorization-names. Note that revoking ALL PRIVILEGES on an XSR object is not the same as revoking the system authority of *ALL.

If you do not use ALL, you must use one or more of the keywords listed below. Each keyword revokes the privilege described.

ALTER
Revokes the privilege to use the COMMENT and LABEL statements.
USAGE
Revokes the privilege to use an XSR object.
ON XSROBJECT xsrobject-name
Identifies the XSR objects for which the privilege is revoked. The xsrobject-name must identify an XSR object that exists at the current server.
FROM
Identifies from whom the privileges are revoked.
USER
Specifies that the authorization-name identifies a user profile. If USER is specified, authorization-name must be a user profile.
GROUP
Specifies that the authorization-name identifies a group profile. If GROUP is specified, authorization-name must be a group profile.
authorization-name,…
Lists one or more authorization IDs. Do not specify the same authorization-name more than once.
PUBLIC
Revokes a grant of the privilege to PUBLIC. For more information, see Authorization, privileges and object ownership.

Notes

Multiple grants: If you revoke a privilege on an XSR object, it nullifies any grant of the privilege on that XSR object, regardless of who granted it.

Revoking WITH GRANT OPTION: The only way to revoke the WITH GRANT OPTION is to revoke ALL.

Privilege warning: Revoking a specific privilege from a user does not necessarily prevent that user from performing an action that requires that privilege. For example, the user may still have the privilege through PUBLIC privileges or database administrator authority.

Corresponding system authorities: When an XSR object privilege is revoked, the corresponding system authorities are revoked. For information about the system authorities that correspond to SQL privileges see GRANT (XML schema privileges).

Example

Revoke the USAGE privilege on XSR object XMLSCHEMA from PUBLIC.
