I have to retrieve a MySQL database information from master database and then connect to that database, and fetch some records.

I mean that holding one database I want to load another database.

Is it possible with Codeigniter? Right now I'm using following lines of code in my model.

function connectDb($credential)
{

    $config['hostname'] = $credential['server'];
    $config['username'] = $credential['username'];
    $config['password'] = $credential['password'];
    $config['database'] = $credential['database'];
    $config['dbdriver'] = "mysql";
    $config['dbprefix'] = "";
    $config['pconnect'] = FALSE;
    $config['db_debug'] = TRUE;
    $config['cache_on'] = FALSE;
    $config['cachedir'] = "";
    $config['char_set'] = "utf8";
    $config['dbcollat'] = "utf8_general_ci";

    $DB2=$this->load->database($config);

    $DB2->db->select('first_name,last_name');
    $query = $DB2->db->get('person');
    print_r($query);

}

its not working is there any other way?
