mysql>

I can not create a database, for example:

CREATE DATABASE rentallo_api;

ERROR 1235 (42000): create database is not supported

I guess it is related with user permissions. I have noticed that in the file init_cluster.yml

Admin user with all privileges.

CREATE USER 'vt_dba'@'localhost';
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'vt_dba'@'localhost';
GRANT GRANT OPTION ON *.* TO 'vt_dba'@'localhost';

The simple question is how can I get the pass for vt_dba?? So i can run admin queries. create database,tables... I know it is a simple question... but I could not find a simple answer in the documentation.

When you created a vitess cluster, a database was created for you. show databases will show it to you. Please refer to the Getting started user guide. The whole idea of vitess is that the "database" spans multiple mysql instances. You should never be creating additional databases directly at the mysql level, if you do, they are not visible to Vitess.
