Restart MongoDB Commands !MongoDB Logo It’s not entirely clear how to quickly start, stop and restart MongoDB with a command line, so I’ve documented it here based on the need for a simple, straightforward approach. MongoDB Commands Use the following commands to start, stop or restart MongoDB. Mac OS On Mac OS the installation process for MongoDB’s Community Edition uses the Homebrew brew package manager with the help of the official MongoDB tap. Starting, stopping and restarting MongoDB on a Mac involves using brew services. Start brew services start mongodb-community@6.0 Stop brew services stop mongodb-community@6.0 Restart brew services restart mongodb-community@6.0 Ubuntu/Debian MongoDB can be managed on linux machines in two ways: 1. service command 2. systemctl command service is used for running init scripts from the terminal. systemctl is a newer initialization system that aims to replace SysVInit. Most Linux distributions such as Debian and Red Hat are already using SystemD as their init system out of the box, so I’m including both here for reference. Start For systemd: sudo systemctl start mongod Or for service: sudo service mongod start Stop For systemd: sudo systemctl stop mongod Or for service: sudo service mongod stop Restart For systemd: sudo systemctl restart mongod Or for service: sudo service mongod restart Windows I’ve never used MongoDB in a Windows IIS environment, but for reference here’s what MongoDB has documented for starting, stopping and restarting the service. Start In the Windows Services console right-click on the MongoDB service and click Start. Stop In the Windows Services console right-click on the MongoDB service and click Stop. Restart In the Windows Services console right-click on the MongoDB service and click Start/Restart.
