In this overload first parameter is name of a collection, and second parameter is the array of restrictions to be applied when querying information. These restrictions specify which subset of the collection will be returned. The restrictions can include, for example, the database name (in this case, only collection elements belonging to this database will be returned) or the mask for the name of collection elements (only the elements satisfying this mask will be returned). The quantity and description of restrictions allowed for each metadata collection are rePResented in the table here. Their number can also be obtained from the return of the GetSchema() method. If the second parameter is null/Nothing, it is ignored.GetSchema Method ReferenceThe following table provides detailed information on metadata collections that can be retrieved using the GetSchema method, and restrictions that can be applied for them. When calling the GetSchema method, you can pass all or few arguments. In the latter case, some default values are assumed, if they were not specified explicitly. The default value of database restriction is , table restriction is base table (.NET2) or table (.NET1). Some collections are not supported in older server versions. If you try ro get metadata for unsupported collection you will get exception with message "Collection not defined".

UserPrivileges	1	Lists all users and their privileges on the server.When restricted by username, returns information about specific user.
Users	1	Lists all users on the server.When restricted by username, returns information about specific user.
