Here are the steps (high-level) on how to move a MongoDB database backup from Jenkins to an Azure VM:

  1. Create a storage account in Azure. You will need a storage account to store the MongoDB database backup. You can create a storage account in the Azure portal.
  2. Create a container in the storage account. You will need a container to store the MongoDB database backup. You can create a container in the Azure portal.
  3. Download the MongoDB database backup from Jenkins. You can download the MongoDB database backup from Jenkins using the Jenkins CLI or the Jenkins web UI.
  4. Upload the MongoDB database backup to Azure storage. You can upload the MongoDB database backup to Azure storage using the Azure CLI or the Azure Storage Explorer.
  5. Restore the MongoDB database backup on the Azure VM. You can restore the MongoDB database backup on the Azure VM using the MongoDB restore command.

Detailed steps:

Prerequisites:

  • An Azure subscription
  • An Azure VM with MongoDB installed
  • A Jenkins server
  • A MongoDB database backup

Step 1: Create a storage account in Azure

  1. Go to the Azure portal and sign in with your credentials.
  2. Click on “Create a resource” and then search for “Storage accounts”.
  3. Select “Storage accounts” from the search results and click on “Create”.
  4. In the “Create storage account” blade, enter the following information:

    • Location: Select the region where you want to create the storage account.
    • Performance: Select the performance tier for the storage account.
    • Replication: Select the replication type for the storage account.
    • Access type: Select the access type for the storage account.
  5. Click on “Review + create” and then click on “Create”.

Step 2: Create a blob container in the storage account

  1. Go to the Azure portal and navigate to the storage account that you created in step 1.
  2. Click on “Containers” and then click on “+ Container”.
  3. Enter a name for the container and click on “Create”.

Step 3: Download the mango database backup from Jenkins

  1. Go to the Jenkins server and log in with your credentials.
  2. Navigate to the job that contains the mango database backup.
  3. Click on the job and then click on the “Build History” tab.
  4. Select the build that contains the mango database backup and click on the “Console Output” tab.
  5. Look for the download link for the mango database backup and download it to your local computer.

Step 4: Upload the mango database backup to the blob container

  1. Go to the Azure portal and navigate to the blob container that you created in step 2.
  2. Click on “Upload”.
  3. Select the mango database backup file that you downloaded in step 3 and click on “Open”.
  4. The mango database backup will be uploaded to the blob container.

Step 5: Create a virtual machine in Azure

  1. Go to the Azure portal and sign in with your credentials.
  2. Click on “Create a resource” and then search for “Virtual machines”.
  3. Select “Virtual machines” from the search results and click on “Create”.
  4. In the “Create virtual machine” blade, enter the following information:

    • Virtual machine name: Enter a name for the virtual machine.
    • VM image: Select the VM image for the virtual machine.
    • Instance type: Select the instance type for the virtual machine.
    • Authentication type: Select the authentication type for the virtual machine.
    • Username: Enter the username for the virtual machine.
    • Password: Enter the password for the virtual machine.
  5. Click on “Review + create” and then click on “Create”.

Step 6: Install the mango database on the Azure VM

  1. Go to the Azure portal and navigate to the virtual machine that you created in step 5.
  2. Click on “Connect”.
  3. A remote desktop connection will be established to the virtual machine.
  4. Log in to the virtual machine using the credentials that you specified in step 5.
  5. Install the mango database on the virtual machine.

Step 7: Restore the mango database backup from the blob container

  1. Go to the Azure portal and navigate to the blob container that you created in step 2.
  2. Download the mango database backup file to the virtual machine.
  3. Restore the mango database backup to the virtual machine.

Step 8: Test the mango database on the Azure VM

  1. Open the mango database application on the virtual machine.
  2. Test the mango database to make sure that it is working properly.

This should complete the process of moving a mango database (backup) from Jenkins to Azure VM.
