Description

This session provides methods to re-assign BrokerProcessorEnabler to Distributor mappings. A BrokerProcessorEnabler may appear in multiple Distributor catalogs and removing the last reference to a BrokerProcessorEnabler is the equivalent of deleting it. Each Distributor may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it.

Adding a reference of a BrokerProcessorEnabler to another Distributor is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its Id).
