	databank repository.  User must have roots rights to run biomaj.

INSTALL

       At  installation, BioMAJ requires a database to run (MySQL), installer should first create a database (biomaj_log) and a database user (the
       one used at installation setup).
	The database configuration for biomaj can be set or modified in /etc/biomaj/db_properties/global.properties.

       In the install fails due to a SQL error, the install script must be manually run to create/upgrade the database:

       perl /usr/share/biomaj/sql/migration/update.pl

       The script will create/upgrade the database and update the configuration files.

ADMIN USER

       A default admin user (admin) is created by the scripts.	If using the biomaj-watcher, the default password (admin) MUST be changed  immedi-
       atly via the watcher interface.

       If only biomaj core is used, password is useless.
	.PP

UPGRADE

	In the case of a package upgrade, if properly configured, the migration scripts will be ran automatically at install.
	It is possible to run manually the script:
	.B See perl /usr/share/biomaj/sql/migration/update.pl -h
	for usage.

EXAMPLES

       Update a bank:
	      biomaj --update genbank

       Show console
	      biomaj --update genbank --console

       Show status:
	      biomaj --status

EXIT STATUS

       biomaj returns a zero exist status if it succeeds, it does not represent the bank update status.
