Installation and backup restoration

Installation

Download and convert the MongoDB GPG key to a file:

Ubuntu 24.04

curl -fsSL https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-8.0.asc | \
   sudo gpg -o /usr/share/keyrings/mongodb-server-8.0.gpg \
   --dearmor

Ubuntu 22.04 20.04

curl -fsSL https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-7.0.asc | \
   sudo gpg -o /usr/share/keyrings/mongodb-server-7.0.gpg \
   --dearmor

Add the repository line to the file:

Ubuntu 24.04

echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/mongodb-server-8.0.gpg ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu noble/mongodb-org/8.0 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-8.0.list

Ubuntu 22.04

echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/mongodb-server-7.0.gpg ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu jammy/mongodb-org/7.0 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-7.0.list

Ubuntu 20.04

echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/mongodb-server-7.0.gpg ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu focal/mongodb-org/7.0 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-7.0.list

Update the list of available packages:

shell

apt-get update

Install MongoDB using the apt package manager:

shell

apt-get install -y mongodb-org

Start the mongod.service:

shell

systemctl start mongod.service

Enable service autostart:

shell

systemctl enable mongod.service

Perform a connection check to the shell:

shell

mongosh mongodb://localhost:27017

Backup restoration

If the connection to the shell is successful, restore the databases from the backup:

shell

mongorestore --drop /backup/mongo-xxxx-xx-xx_xx-xx-xx

danger

If you made changes to the MongoDB configuration file (mongod.conf), you need to replace the new file with the old one:

shell

cp ./mongod.conf /etc/

Restart the mongod.service:

shell

systemctl restart mongod.service

Open Passwork to verify correct operation.
