How do I enable Entity Framework 5 (version 5.0.0) migrations for multiple DB contexts in the same project, where each context corresponds to its own database? When I run Enable-Migrations in the PM console (Visual Studio 2012), there's an error because of there being multiple contexts:
PM> Enable-Migrations
More than one context type was found in the assembly 'DatabaseService'.
To enable migrations for DatabaseService.Models.Product1DbContext, use Enable-Migrations -ContextTypeName DatabaseService.Models.Product1DbContext.
To enable migrations for DatabaseService.Models.Product2DbContext, use Enable-Migrations -ContextTypeName DatabaseService.Models.Product2DbContext.
If I run Enable-Migrations -ContextTypeName DatabaseService.Models.Product1DbContext I'm not allowed to run Enable-Migrations -ContextTypeName DatabaseService.Models.Product2DbContext because a migration already exists: Migrations have already been enabled in project 'DatabaseService'. To overwrite the existing migrations configuration, use the -Force parameter.

The 2nd call to Enable-Migrations is failing because the Configuration.cs file already exists. If you rename that class and file, you should be able to run that 2nd Enable-Migrations, which will create another Configuration.cs.
You will then need to specify which configuration you want to use when updating the databases.
