><H2
>Notes</H2
><P
>   <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>DROP OWNED</TT
> is often used to prepare for the
   removal of one or more roles. Because <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>DROP OWNED</TT
>
   only affects the objects in the current database, 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
>   Using the <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>CASCADE</TT
> option might make the command
   recurse to objects owned by other users.
  </P
><P
>   The <A
HREF="sql-reassign-owned.html"
><I
>REASSIGN OWNED</I
></A
> command is an alternative that
   reassigns the ownership of all the database objects owned by one or
   more roles.
