<para>
The <command>REASSIGN OWNED</command> command is mostly used in preparation to
drop the roles. See the <command>DROP OWNED</command> command for an
alternative that drops the objects.
<command>REASSIGN OWNED</command> is often used to prepare for the
removal of one or more roles. Because <command>REASSIGN
OWNED</command> 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.
</para>
<para>
The <command>REASSIGN OWNED</command> command does not affect the privileges
granted to the old_roles in objects not owned by them. Use
<command>DROP OWNED</command> to remove them.
The <xref linkend="sql-drop-owned"
endterm="sql-drop-owned-title"> command is an alternative that
drops all the database objects owned by one or more roles.
</para>
<para>
The <command>REASSIGN OWNED</command> command does not affect the
privileges granted to the old_roles in objects that are not owned
by them. Use <command>DROP OWNED</command> to revoke those
privileges.
