Its not correct to talk of multiple repositories. A single repository contains many "Stores". So an Alfresco repository (always one) contains a set of stores. Its the different stores that can have their own roots.

On Alfresco Enterprise you can use the content store selector to change which store to use. AFAIK its Enterprise Only.

On Alfresco Community you can configure mutiple content stores through spring.

if it's true, how to config it in Community edition?

Spring ? I couldn't find any threads on the Wiki and other official documents site.

And I found since Alfresco 3.x version, the feature was enabled, but still only Enterprise edition.

If any Community editions of Alfresco does not support this ,please tell me definitely.

On Enterprise its the cm:storeSelector aspect. Its an Enterprise only enhancement as is the code that that makes it easy to switch content between different content stores.

But out of the box both Enterprise and Community there are at least 4 content stores defined, more if you use AVM. Look at the definition of the Spaces Store.
