Cloning Ubiquiti's MongoDB instance to a separate server

Read Original

This article provides a step-by-step tutorial for migrating a Ubiquiti Unifi controller's MongoDB database (named 'ace') from an embedded device like a CloudKey to a separate server. It covers SSH access, inspecting the database, using mongodump to create a backup, installing a newer version of MongoDB on a target server, and restoring the data with mongorestore.
