To set up a database, perform the following steps:

1. In theNew Database text box, enter a name for the database and click Next Step.
2. In the Usernametext box, enter a name for the user who you wish to allow to manage the database.
3. Enter and confirm the new password in the appropriate text boxes.
4. Click Create User.
5. Select the checkboxes that correspond to the privileges that you want to grant the user, or select ALL PRIVILEGES.

• For more information about user privileges, read the MySQL documentation.

The system displays a message that states that you successfully set up the database and user account.
