Decompress DMK_Mongodb package:

mongodb $ cd /u01/app/mongodb/artifacts
mongodb $ tar -xvzf MongoDB-DMK-xx-xx.tar.gz -C /u01/app/mongodb/local/
mongodb $ ls /u01/app/mongodb/local

/u01/app/mongodb/local/ is the directory where DMK is installed usually. But it can be everywhere.

DMK configuration

Execute DMK for the first time

mongodb@dev-vm:/home/mongodb/ $ /u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk/bin/dmk.sh
2025-01-14_09:45:01::dmk.sh::/u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk/bin/dmk.sh ::INFO ==> DMK init environnement.
2025-01-14_09:45:01::dmk.sh::/u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk/bin/dmk.sh ::INFO ==> Add DMK_HOME=/u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk to /home/mongodb/.DMK
2025-01-14_09:45:01::dmk.sh::/u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk/bin/dmk.sh ::INFO ==> Add PERL5LIB= to /home/mongodb/.DMK
2025-01-14_09:45:01::dmk.sh::/u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk/bin/dmk.sh ::INFO ==> Add PERL_EXEC=/usr/bin/perl to /home/mongodb/.DMK
2025-01-14_09:45:01::dmk.sh::/u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk/bin/dmk.sh ::INFO ==> Add /u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk/templates/profile/dmk.mongodb.profile content to .profile or .bash_profile

🟡 NOTE:

• It is recommended to add the content of /u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk/templates/profile/dmk.mongodb.profile to the .profile or .bash_profile file of mongodb user. This step is optional but recommended, in order to have DMK environment set to each login.

mongodb $ sed -n '/# BEGIN DMK BLOCK/, /# END DMK BLOCK/p' /u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk/templates/profile/dmk.mongodb.profile >> $HOME/.bash_profile

• At this level a default dmk.conf conf file was copied to /u01/app/mongodb/local/dmk/etc/dmk.conf. You can edit the DEFAULT section to adapt it at your configuration. The default dmk.conf is adapted to MFA directory structure.

🟡 NOTE: The only values that are mandatory to look are:

Variable	Default Value
MONGODB_BASE	/u01/app/mongodb
MONGODB_LOG	/u02/mongodblog
MONGODB_BACKUP	/u90/backup

After these configuration steps, resource the bash environnement (exit and login again). The prompt should look like this:

mongodb@{your_hostname}:/home/mongodb/ [DUMMY]
