3.1.4.19 ICapabilitySupport
The ICapabilitySupport interface provides methods for starting and stopping optional, dynamically controllable, catalog-related capabilities of a COMA server. This version of COMA defines one such capability, instance load balancing (section 1.3.9). This interface inherits from IUnknown, as specified in [MS-DCOM] section 3.1.1.5.8.
To receive incoming remote calls for this interface, the server MUST implement a DCOM Object Class with the CLSID CLSID_COMAServer, specified in section 1.9, using the UUID {47CDE9A1-0BF6-11D2-8016-00C04FB9988E} for this interface.
This interface includes the following methods beyond those of IUnknown.
