Hi,
As a mongoDB newbie I am looking for a cook book. The mongodb (3.6) is installed according the Sametime 11 documentation, single server, Windows.
How do I find out which install binary I need?
Do I need a mongodb admin account? I only see the "sametimeUser"?
Do I need to make a backup of the full replica set rs0?
Do I have to make some reconfiguration like the upgrade of the ODS in domino?
kind Regards
Jürgen
Hi,
yes - you only need to replace the mongodb binaries and dependig on your configuration some mongodb changes per version.
From 3.6 to 4.0 (first upgrade path)
1. change MongoDB-CR to SCRAM & check compatibility Version (should be 3.6)
2. download MongoDB Version 4.0 as ZIP
3. Replace 3.6 binaries with 4.0
4. Set compatibility Version to 4.0
From 4.0 to 4.2 (for Sametime 11.5)
1. Disable Read Concern Majority
2. download MongoDB Version 4.2 as ZIP
3. Replace 4.0 binaries with 4.2
4. Set Version to 4.2
From 4.2 to 4.4 (for Sametime 11.6) - Mongo 4.4 is not running on Windows 2012
There is a change from 32-64 Bit binaries - i need to test this first
I will make a more detail blog entry (with the correct commands and screenshots) next week about this.
It seems that is also very easy to move mongoDB database(s) to a new MongoDB server or instance.
