NetVault Plug-in for MongoDB 12.4 - User Guide

Reviewing the recommended configuration

While you can set up a single machine as both the NetVault Server and the MongoDB Server, that is, all software installation and configuration requirements are performed on a single machine, Quest recommends that these two entities exist on separate machines.

IMPORTANT: One MongoDB plug-in can serve multiple MongoDB servers (on-premise and cloud).

Sample procedures throughout this guide assume that you are using this two-machine environment and that configuration requirements have been met.

Installing the plug-in

The following topic describes the process for installing the plug-in on a single client or upgrading an existing one. If you have multiple clients of the same type, you can use the NetVault Configuration Wizard to install the plug-in on multiple clients at the same time. For more information on using push installation to update multiple clients at the same time, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.
