I create my DB as follows

 self.db = LibStub("AceDB-3.0"):New("LD50_armor_DB", defaults, "Default");   db = self.db;

db_data = LD50_armor.db:RegisterNamespace("LD50_armor_data", defaults, "Default");

What I want to do is to be able to set the profile on db_data to Default and leave it there. (This is so all users on the account share that data) and then be able to call SetProfile on db per user.

Right now I end up with two namespaces "LD50_armor_data" "LD50_armor" but only the "LD50_armor_data" is used. The actual player settings are one level higher.

Here is the clipped lua file:

LD50_armor_DB = {
    ["namespaces"] = {
        ["LD50_armor_data"] = {
            ["profileKeys"] = {
                ["Balstor - Mug'thol"] = "Default",
            },
            ["profiles"] = {
                ["Default"] = {
         },
        ["LD50_armor"] = {
            ["profiles"] = {
                ["Default"] = {
                    ["scale"] = 1.25,
                },
            },
        },
    },
    ["profileKeys"] = {
        ["Balstor - Mug'thol"] = "Default",
    },
    ["profiles"] = {
        ["Warrior"] = {
            ["scale"] = 1.2,
        },
        ["Default"] = {
            ["scale"] = 1.2,
        },
    },
}

When I try to set the profile currently both of the "ProfileKeys" are set and I really only want to change the later ones.

Actually you can even use two AceDBs stored in subtables of the same savedvar, since you can just give AceDB a table pointer to work with.

.... but if you already have a big SV, that's probably not what you want to do.

You probably don't need to separate your database in two, but to save some in db.profile and some in db.global.
