Make JDBC Service Name overridable for Graphical Maps

The JDBC configurable service name is tied to the database name used for the DBM file, that is connected to DB operations within a graphical map.

This service name should be overridable because databases can be named differently for producation and test environments. The database can be reconfigured within the configurable service, but it is not good to have inconsistent naming.

It will be much cleaner, if the configurable service is named accordingly.

    RFE Review. Thank you for taking the time to raise this enhancement suggestion and apologies it has been in Submitted status for a while. Sometimes we are nervous of adding complexity to the product (eg an intermediate service name where none is required), but this can come at the cost of flexibility to the product administrator. We acknowledge that this is what has occurred in this situation, and we could probably achieve the best of both worlds by maintaining the current naming convention as a default but optionally allowing a user to express a separate name for a JDBC policy (new concept in ACEv11 which replaces configurable services) as well. Status of the RFE is updated to Uncommitted Candidate.
