| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Default | Uses the inherited value from the ImpersonationMode on the DataSourceImpersonationInfo object in the database.
Note The default ImpersonationMode is ImpersonateCurrentUser for DM OPENQUERY (DMX) and out of line data sources, and the default for processing and server synchronizing is ImpersonateServiceAccount. |
|
| ImpersonateAccount | This option is used when the service uses the account and (optionally) a password associated with the data source.
Note The absence of a password indicates that the service account will request a Kerberos ticket for the data source service and the domain will check to see if service account can delegate credentials to the data source. |
|
| ImpersonateAnonymous | Currently not supported. | |
| ImpersonateCurrentUser | The current user is impersonated.
Note This is valid for OPENQUERY (DMX) statements only |
|
| ImpersonateServiceAccount | The credentials of the service account are used.
Note Only Server Administrators can designate a data source impersonation mode as ImpersonateServiceAccount |
Remarks

Each data source object has an ImpersonationMode which states how the service authenticates itself to the data source.
