I have an installation of Drupal that includes 3 hosted domains with one instance of Drupal and 2 or more databases;

/sites/default
/sites/mydomain.org
/sites/yourdomain.net

Backup & Migrate is installed in the /sites/all/modules/backup_migrate directory...

When I activate the module across multiple Drupal instances, I see copies of the backup across each site...

A problem might occur when a user selects 'restore' for the wrong site with the wrong database...

One fix might be to filter the list of backups displayed using the 'backup file name' as a simple filter...

One other side effect might be (although I have not tested this) is that the number of backup files to keep might be incorrect based on a common list of backup files...

Great module....

Sorry about the delay. Do you have all of the sites pointing at the same files directory? If that's the case then there's not a lot I can do about this. There's no reliable way for me to find only the correct backups from a communal folder, and I'd rather not go through the trouble for an imperfect fix to a rare issue.

If the sites are not using the same files directory or something else is going on, reopen the ticket

Thanks
