No problem to do this, we are doing the same (each designer
getting its own data-base) for test purpose.

command like:
/usr/bin/postmaster -D //regulus/reg2/dbm -p 1622 -B512 -o -S2048
where -D and -p parameter are different for each data-base.
(we are starting postmater from inside the application itself
such we are sure application is working on the proper base and port)
Be sure to create a full data-base structure in the proper area.
