slices documentation needs to mention requirement for global username/password
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: OPENJPA-786
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-786
             Project: OpenJPA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: docs
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Fernando


Reading the Slices documentation, it looks like you should be able to configure 
a UserName/Password for each slice, but in reality it doesn't support that.  It 
only supports one UserName/Password globally:

So you can't do:

> openjpa.slice.Slice1.ConnectionPassword=########
> openjpa.slice.Slice1.ConnectionUserName=dbuser_protrade
> openjpa.slice.Slice2.ConnectionPassword=########
> openjpa.slice.Slice2.ConnectionUserName=dbuser_protrade

You can only do:

> openjpa.slice.ConnectionPassword=########
> openjpa.slice.ConnectionUserName=dbuser_protrade



So.. it looks like slices does not support a username/password per slice.  It 
requires a global username/password.  And the documentation doesn't make it 
clear at all.  You might want to review that section again.  And make it really 
clear that you HAVE to define global username/password.
