Create the dimensional database

You must create the dimensional database before you can create any of the tables or other objects that the database must contain.

When you use the HCL® OneDB® database server to create a database, the server sets up records that show the existence of the database and its mode of logging. The database server manages disk space directly, so these records are not visible to operating-system commands.

The following statement shows the syntax that you use to create a database that is called sales_demo:
CREATE DATABASE sales_demo
