[quote author="matt2012" date="1223500736"]im trying to backup a database but the dbutil seems to use the default group
how do I get it to use another database group.

Code:

$this->load->database($group, TRUE);
$this->load->dbutil();
//$prefs =..
$backup =& $this->dbutil->backup($prefs);

Its working in that im getting a database downloaded but not using $group
rather 'default_group';[/quote]

Right, try...

Code:

$myDbHandle = $this->load->database($group, TRUE);
$this->load->dbutil();
//$prefs =..
$backup =& $this->myDbHandle->dbutil->backup($prefs);
