Cluster Reliability / Restoring Data from Backups

Code Recap: Restoring Data from Backups

Backup Agent Default Log Locations

The default log locations for Linux and Windows systems are as follow:

Linux:

/var/log/mongodb-mms-automation/backup-agent.log

Windows:

%SystemDrive%\MMSAutomation\log\mongodb-mms-automation\backup-agent.log

Confirm the MongoDB Agent is Running:

Use ps aux to list all processes that are currently running on the system. Pipe the output to a grep for “mms” to find processes related to the MongoDB automation agent. On windows systems, the equivalent commands would be tasklist and findstr.

Linux:

ps aux | grep mms

Windows:

tasklist | findstr mms

Start the MongoDB Agent:

If the backup agent is not already running on your system, you may start it using systemctl start:

Code:

sudo systemctl start mongodb-mms-automation-agent.service
