A JSON object with the following members:
"name": <id> required

"tables": {<id>: <table-schema>, ...} required
The "name" identifies the database as a whole. It must be
operated on. The value of "tables" is a JSON object whose names
are table names and whose values are <table-schema>s.
+ The "version" reports the version of the database schema. Because

+ to be omitted, but future versions of OVSDB will require it to be
+ present. Open vSwitch semantics for "version" are described in
+ ovs-vswitchd.conf.db(5).
