MongoDB
After you successfully add MongoDB
instances to IBM Spectrum® Protect
Plus , you can start to protect
the data in your MongoDB databases. Create
service level agreement (SLA) policies to back up and maintain MongoDB data.
Prerequisites for MongoDB
All system requirements and prerequisites for the IBM Spectrum Protect Plus MongoDB application server must be met before you start protecting MongoDB data with IBM Spectrum Protect Plus .
Adding a MongoDB application server
To start protecting MongoDB resources, you must add the server that hosts your MongoDB instances, and set credentials for the instances. Repeat the procedure to add all the servers that host MongoDB resources.
Backing up MongoDB data
You can define backup jobs to protect your MongoDB data. To regularly back up your data, define a backup job that includes a service level agreement (SLA) policy.
Restoring MongoDB data
To restore data, define a job that restores data to the latest backup or select an earlier backup copy. Choose to restore data to the original instance or to an alternative instance on a different machine, creating a cloned copy. Define and save the restore job to run as an ad hoc operation, or to run regularly as a scheduled job.
