I have just installed sametime premium 12.0.2 fp2, using the latest mongo db which is 8.0.5. Is it safe to use this mongo version?

I am still working on problems with audio/video, not necessarily relating to this question.

FYI: The creation of the "administrator" user in mongo worked as described in sametime docs was fine till mongo 8.0.4, but failed in 8.0.5. I had to slightly modify it so as to first create the user and then grant the sametime specific roles:

db.createUser(
  {
    user: "**adminwhatever**",
    pwd: "**somepassword**",
    roles: [
      { role: "userAdminAnyDatabase", db: "admin" },
      { role: "readWriteAnyDatabase", db: "admin" }
    ]
  }
)
db.grantRolesToUser(
   "**adminwhatever**",
   [{role:"readWrite", db:"chatlogging"},
                           {role:"dbAdmin",db:"chatlogging"},
                           {role:"readWrite", db:"mobileOffline"},
                           {role:"dbAdmin", db:"mobileOffline"},
                           { role:"readWrite", db:"meeting"},
                           {role:"dbAdmin", db:"meeting"},
                           { role:"readWrite", db:"privacy"},
                           {role:"dbAdmin", db:"privacy"},
                           { role:"readWrite", db:"userinfo"},
                           {role:"dbAdmin", db:"userinfo"}
   ]
)

I'm using Mongo 8.0.5 without issues, but I haven't needed to create the admin account on it (already done on a previous version.)

Here's the collapsed command line that worked previously for me- change the username and password and give it a try:

admin = db.getSiblingDB("admin")
admin.createUser({user: "sametimeAdmin", pwd: "sametime", roles:[{ role: "userAdminAnyDatabase", db: "admin"}, {role:"readWrite", db:"chatlogging"}, {role:"dbAdmin",db:"chatlogging"}, {role:"readWrite", db:"mobileOffline"}, {role:"dbAdmin", db:"mobileOffline"}, {role:"readWrite", db:"meeting"}, {role:"dbAdmin", db:"meeting"}, {role:"readWrite", db:"privacy"}, {role:"dbAdmin", db:"privacy"}, {role:"readWrite", db:"userinfo"}, {role:"dbAdmin", db:"userinfo"}]})
