edmiCreateDatabase
EdmiError edmiCreateDatabase(SdaiString location, SdaiString databaseName, SdaiString password);
Creates a new EDMdatabase. This operation will fail if the actual EDMserver has another open database. During the creation of a new EDMdatabasethe two EDMusers named superuser and sdai-user, and the EDMgroup named sdai-group will be created. The users superuser and sdai-user are member of the group sdai-group. The superuser is the privileged user in the EDMserver. The sdai-user and the sdai-group is the default user and group account, i.e. when connecting to the EDMserver by the sdaiOpenSession function, the caller will be logged-in as the EDMuser sdai-user and the EDMgroup sdai-group. The superuser will automatically get the same password as the database password defined by this operation. The superuser can change its password by executing edmiDefinePassword function. The password that protects the EDMdatabase cannot be changed.
