To copy all the data from your hello1
EC2 instance to your new hi2
EC2 instance, you can use the mongodump
and mongorestore
commands. Here are the high-level steps to follow:
On the
hello1
EC2 instance, use themongodump
command to create a backup of the MongoDB database. This will create a binary export of the data in the MongoDB database.mongodump --archive=/path/to/backup.archive --gzip
This command will create a compressed binary dump of your MongoDB database and save it to a specified file location.
Copy the backup archive from the
hello1
EC2 instance to thehi2
EC2 instance. You can use any method you prefer to transfer the file such asscp
,rsync
or S3 bucket.On the
hi2
EC2 instance, use themongorestore
command to import the backup into the MongoDB database.mongorestore --archive=/path/to/backup.archive --gzip
This command will import the backup archive into your MongoDB database on the
hi2
EC2 instance.Once the import process is complete, you can verify that the data has been successfully copied to the
hi2
EC2 instance by connecting to the MongoDB database and running queries to check the data.
Please note that the above process assumes that you have the same version of MongoDB installed on both EC2 instances. If the versions are different, you may need to update the database on the hi2
instance to match the version of the backup from the hello1
instance before you can restore the backup.
