 ## Multiple Database Connections
 
-You can define multiple database connections by registering multiple `MikroOrmModule` and setting their `contextName`. If you want to use middleware request context you must disable automatic middleware and register `MikroOrmModule` with `forMiddleware()` or use NestJS `Injection Scope`
+You can define multiple database connections by registering multiple `MikroOrmModule`'s, each with a unique `contextName`. You will need to disable the automatic request context middleware by setting `registerRequestContext` to `false`, as it wouldn't work with this approach - note that this needs to be part of all your `MikroOrmModule`s with non-default `contextName`. To have the same automatic request context behaviour, you must register `MikroOrmModule` with `forMiddleware()` instead:
