Resolution

Within the current design of RC/Merger there is no way to override the authorization ID used to create the Hold table which is created behind the scenes for the Reserve OBID process. The Authorization ID used, is the owner (CREATOR field from SYSDATABASE) of the target database on the target subsystem.

As the hold table is created just for the purpose of the Reserve OBIDs process, if it is not necessary to reserve OBIDs, then this problem can be avoided by setting the Reserve OBID Analysis option to N.
