TService is not really designed to be used in that manner, so there is no
direct way to do what you ask.  If you only have 1 TService in your
application, then you would have to dynamically change the Service's Name
property during installation as well as when the service is actually
starting.  You would need to pass the Service's new name as a command-line
parameter so that the service code could look at that and update its Name
property appropriately.

Otherwise, what you really should do is create separate TService classes,
one for each database type that you want to support.  A TServiceApplication
can host multiple TService classes inside of itself, each one independant of
each other.

However, if you choose to only have a single TService that changes its Name,
then that is not going to change which database is being accessed at
runtime, so how are you planning on telling the service which database to
access per instance of the service?
