Create a Private Database
To create a database as private, use the -p flag with the createdb command. A private database is accessible only to Ingres installation users who have been granted access to that database by the creator of the database or by a user with the necessary security privileges.
To create a private database that uses the default locations
Issue the following command at the operating system prompt:
createdb -p dbname
To create a private database in an alternate location, see the chapter "Using Alternate Locations."
