-`SCHEMA` and `DATABASE` are interchangeable and one can be used in place of
the other. An error message
-is issued if the database is not found in the system. This command is mostly
used to record the metadata
-for a database and may be used for auditing purposes.

Please note that the usage of
+`DATABASE`, `SCHEMA` and `NAMESPACE` are interchangeable and one can be used
