System Schema
The built-in SYS and SYSADMIN schemas provide metadata tables and procedures against the current VDB.
By default a system schema for ODBC metadata pg_catalog is also exposed - however that should be considered for general use.
Metadata Visibility
The SYS system schema tables and procedures are always visible/accessible.
Unlike Teiid 8.x and prior releases when Data Roles are in use table/views and procedure metadata entries will not be visible if the user is not entitled by some permission to use the object. All columns of a key must be accessible for the entry to be visible.
Note
|
If you wish all metadata to be visible to any authenticated user, then set the environment/system property org.teiid.metadataRequiresPermission to false. |
Note
|
If there is any caching of system metadata when data roles are in use, then visibility needs to be considered. |
