Mongodb Systemd service on Ubuntu 16.04

Getting inspiration from Digital Ocean article on setting up mongodb on Ubuntu 16.04. There is a small caveat which i found today in the [Service] text and the config path /path/to/mongo/config which is causing my mongodb.service to fail to run.

Here is my take based on the mongodb configuration file path on my Ubuntu 16.04:

[Unit]
Description=High-performance, schema-free document-oriented database
After=network.target

[Service]
User=mongodb
ExecStart=/usr/bin/mongod --quiet --config /etc/mongodb.conf

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

If you have noticed in the original documentation the ExecStart points to /etc/mongod.conf, whereas on my system it should point to /etc/mongodb.conf.

That's all for today.

Fixing time on sysvinit and systemd

If you have a system that boot using different GNU/Linux init systems such as sysvinit (aka System 5) and systemd (aka System 500) in addition to proprietary Windows system, you may face incorrect time display on one of the aforementioned system. The difference in time display is dependent on the time difference of your location and the UTC time. Further complication may result from concept like Daylight Saving Time (DST). If the Bios is set to localtime, you may fix it in systemd boot system using 'timedatectl' command like: sudo timedatectl set-local-rtc 1 However, if you are using sysvinit and Bios is using localtime, you can set inform the system that local time is being used using 'hwclock' command like: sudo hwclock --localtime or to synchronize the hardware clock with system time and inform the system using: sudo hwclock --systohc --localtime If Bios is using UTC time, you may revert the change with 'timedatectl' like: sudo timedatectl set-lo
