Hi Roman and Maciej,

From SQL MA, I found out that the following properties are being used 
in order to determine the type of access to xmldb and also the access 
related parameters.

component.ma.xmldb.db_uri
component.ma.xmldb.db_username
component.ma.xmldb.db_password
component.ma.xmldb.db_status
component.ma.xmldb.db_access
component.ma.xmldb.db_uri.xmlrpc

Can you please help me in understanding the purpose and the way to use 
the following properties

component.ma.xmldb.db_uri.xmlrpc and component.ma.xmldb.db_uri
-> do we need both of them?

component.ma.xmldb.db_status
-> what does this mean? If its off, does the storage manager 
automatically read from an xml file instead?

I would like to make use of the existDb but I see that I need to pass 
the names of these properties. I suggest we fix the name of these 
properties and read them directly in the factory so that
* Each service doesn't need to pass them. Invocation becomes simpler.
* We have the same property names for all the services. That way we 
avoid duplicate entries and its easier to manage and understand.

Regards,
Loukik
