The server generated these startup warnings when booting:

      2020-08-09T08:09:08.697+00:00: Using the XFS filesystem is strongly recommended with the WiredTiger storage engine. See http://dochub.mongodb.org/core/prodnotes-filesystem

      2020-08-09T08:09:10.712+00:00: Access control is not enabled for the database. Read and write access to data and configuration is unrestricted

      Enable MongoDB's free cloud-based monitoring service, which will then receive and display
14
      metrics about your deployment (disk utilization, CPU, operation statistics, etc).
15
16
      The monitoring data will be available on a MongoDB website with a unique URL accessible to you
17
      and anyone you share the URL with. MongoDB may use this information to make product
18
      improvements and to suggest MongoDB products and deployment options to you.
19
20
      To enable free monitoring, run the following command: db.enableFreeMonitoring()
21
      To permanently disable this reminder, run the following command: db.disableFreeMonitoring()
