SQL Admin Provider::RemoveUserFromRole

The RemoveUserFromRole method allows you to remove a user from a SQL role.

Arguments

Input argument Required Description

Name

Yes

The security account being removed from the role. The value of security_account is SYSNAME, with no default. The security_account can be any valid SQL Server user, SQL Server role, or any Windows NT user or group granted access to the current database. When removing Windows NT users or groups, specify the name that the Windows NT user or group is known by in the database (added using GrantLogin).

Role

Yes

The role from which the user should be removed. This role must exist prior to executing this method.

Database

Yes

The database containing the role for the user to be removed from.

ServerName

Yes

A string representing the name of the server. This can be a NetBIOS name, a FQDN, or an IP address. It is vital that the server upon which MPS is running be able to resolve server names using whichever naming convention you employ.

[sqlUserName]

No

The user name for connecting to the SQL server via SQL Authentication. If this node is present the connection will be made via SQL Authentication rather than Windows Authentication. The existence of this node also requires that the <sqlUserPass/> node exist.

[sqlUserPass]

No

The password for connecting to the SQL server via SQL Authentication using the username indicated by <sqlUserName/>. If the <sqlUserName/> node is not present, this node is ignored.

Remarks

Rollback Calls

The RemoveUserFromRole method has no transaction rollback support.
