Administering the MongoDB service

The following information describes common tasks that an administrator performs to maintain a MongoDB database in production.

Administering with the MongoDB Ops Manager
If you created a MongoDB database deployment in your IBM Cloud Pak® for Data cluster, you can access the MongoDB Ops Manager to complete common tasks such as managing the users that have access to the database or configuring your MongoDB nodes.
Giving users access to MongoDB databases
By default, only the user who creates the database has access to the database. This user is the First Ops Manager user and must give other users access to the database.
Configuring backup with the MongoDB Ops Manager
By default, backing up data is disabled for the MongoDB Ops Manager.
Restoring data from a MongoDB backup
You can perform backup and restore procedures for MongoDB instances after configuring Ops Manager to enable backups.
