CREATE DATABASE only applies to ADABAS, VSAM, RMS, CISAM, DISAM, DATAFLEX or POWERFLEX, MICROFOCUS, and RMCOBOL databases.
CREATE DATABASE does not actually create a database; instead it links CONNX to an existing database for further processing.
With CREATE DATABASE, you can create a link to an Adabas database using a script instead of using the CONNX Data Dictionary (CDD) Manager.
Execute a DISCONNECT prior to using the DATABASE container.
Execute a CREATE DATABASE before a CONNECT; otherwise the CONNECT will fail.
After executing a CREATE DATABASE, you can execute CREATE TABLE DESCRIPTION to complete the CDD.
