Is there a way to see what database my bes express is using?

Long story short, I had a messed up install moving from BPS to BES express.

 

I ended up with 3 databases, and im not sure which one my current BES is using.

 

When I log into SQL studio manager under server\blackberry I have 3 databases there, and im not sure which one is the one to be using.

Please use plain text.

Thanks for your help Knotty, your always on here giving great help!

 

Would there being two databases be okay or cause for concern?
