organization of tot data bases

[David Zimmerman <zimm@physgi01f.phy.bnl.gov>]

Dear Grand Challengers

In order to allow easy parallel development of Objy applications
I have set up a few toy data bases on pdsf. 
The organization I tried to do is::

database ID's 29998 -30100 are reserved for people's toy data bases.

the toy databases are kept in
/scrgc/data01/dbases/db_FDID/

Each file has a setup.com which sets a couple of flags for the data
base.   Information on the schema used in building these data bases can
be found in the /scrgc/data01/dbases/schema_info/ directory.

If you (or anyone) wants to claim a toy database to play with they have
only to edit this file and add something like 

echo "***************************************************"
echo "This is David Malon's toy data base.  Dont touch it."
echo "***************************************************"

Right now I am using db_30005
Mark Pollack is using db_30003
and David Malon is using db_30002

30001 and 30004 are free for use.  Its easy and fun to make 30006 and 
upward.  Drop me a line if youd like to talk about how to do it.

There is a db_template directory which contains an empty federated 
database an unattached database and the ddl which was used to define the 
schema.  As well as a file which gives physical meaning to the physics 
databases which we are using right now.  Please dont use the db_template
database (FDID 29998) for anything so that we can keep its schema
pristine.
