[Opensim-users] change mysql database name

[Diva Canto]

For the diva distro:
1) Create the other schema in MySql, with the new name
2) Give the opensim user the proper permissions to that schema
3) Run Configure.exe on the second instance
4) Before running that second instance, edit its file 
config-include/MyWorld.ini. Locate the connection string configuration 
variables (there are 2 in 0.7.0.2) and change the Database name to the 
new name.
5) Run the second instance

In general, the database name is given in those connection strings in 
whatever .ini files you have there. You can set them to whatever name 
you want.
