I think you are confused about the differences between "provider" and 
"consumer".  The provider is what starts with the full database.  The 
consumer is what gets the database from the provider.  So the provider does 
*not* copy the database, the consumer does.

In any case, your "attrs" line is wrong.  You really shouldn't set it at 
all and just use the default unless you really know what you're doing.
