Configure

Define a backup plan (yaml format) for each database you want to backup inside the config dir. The yaml file name is being used as the backup plan ID, no white spaces or special characters are allowed.

Backup plan

scheduler:
  # run every day at 6:00 and 18:00 UTC
  cron: "0 6,18 */1 * *"
  # number of backups to keep locally
  retention: 14
  # backup operation timeout in minutes
  timeout: 60
target:
  # mongod IP or host name
  host: "172.18.7.21"
  # mongodb port
  port: 27017
  # mongodb database name, leave blank to backup all databases
  database: "test"
  # leave blank if auth is not enabled
  username: "admin"
  password: "secret"
  # add custom params to mongodump (eg. Auth or SSL support), leave blank if not needed
  params: "--ssl --authenticationDatabase admin"

target:
  host: "mongos-0.db,mongos-1.db"
  port: 27017
  database: "test"

The success/fail logs will be sent via SMTP and/or Slack if notifications are enabled.

The mongodump log is stored along with the backup data (gzip archive) in the storage dir:

aleph-mbp:test aleph$ ls -lh storage/mongo-dev

Restore

In order to restore from a local backup you have two options:

Browse mgob-host:8090/storage to identify the backup you want to restore. Login to your MongoDB server and download the archive using curl and restore the backup with mongorestore command line.

curl -o /tmp/mongo-test-1494056760.gz http://mgob-host:8090/storage/mongo-test/mongo-test-1494056760.gz
mongorestore --gzip --archive=/tmp/mongo-test-1494056760.gz --drop

You can also restore a backup from within mgob container. Exec into mgob, identify the backup you want to restore and use mongorestore to connect to your MongoDB server.

docker exec -it mgob sh
ls /storage/mongo-test
mongorestore --gzip --archive=/storage/mongo-test/mongo-test-1494056760.gz --host mongohost:27017 --drop
