By default when you create a Web Application in SharePoint, a Database is created. What if you want a Site Collection under this Web application to be created with a dedicated database. This has proven to be a challenge in that you cannot use sharepoint central administration or the user interface for this purpose. Instead a command tool known as stsadm can be used. So browse to 12hive directory(%SystemDrive%\Program Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\Bin )
Use this command: stsadm.exe -o createsiteinnewdb -url http://................... /sites/newSiteName -owneremail owneremailaddress -ownerlogin domainname\adminName -databasename dbName_Content -sitetemplate STS#1 -Title YourSiteName
Here is the explanation:
createsiteinnewdb - Creates a dedicated database
-url - A url to your site e.g http://servername:2222/sites/newSiteName
-owneremail - You have to provide this parameter, this the email normally for admin purposes e.g noreply@stmpserver.local
-ownerlogin - You have to provide this parameter, this is the owner or sharepoint administrator login details e.g mydomain\administrator.
-databasename - This is the optional parameter. If you don't provide this SharePoint will default names such as WSS_Content_0316f86a25cb4982b12d4f5ce833003f provide custom names such as GroupName_Content
-sitetemplate - This is important, you need to provide the template that you site is going to use. See a detailed list below.
-Title - This is optional, if you are building HR Site, provide the name such as Human Resource, this name will appear on the new site.
